Americana Buzzband Greensky Bluegrass Coming to Sullivan Hall
On September 16th Greensky Bluegrass, considered to be one of the most exciting bands in today’s music scene, will bring their unique bluegrass rock to Sullivan Hall with openers The Wild Northern.
Like a breath of fresh air, this five piece band plays traditional bluegrass instruments and uses them to create original songs that are unique, yet feel comfortable and familiar. Though they have been likened to ‘70s era Americana acts like The Band, Greensky would prefer not to be compared to any other bands. “We really just try to make music as a group that sounds and feels right to us”, says mandolin player Paul Hoffman, later adding that “it is nice to know that other people really dig it, too.”
On any given night, in addition to a myriad of excellent original songs, one might hear traditional bluegrass songs with an exploratory rock and roll jam or selections from the Talking Heads, Jimi Hendrix, The Grateful Dead, or Bob Marley turned bluegrass.
Due out Oct. 4th
