Overview

I play both original and traditional folk-country-bluegrass-rock-blues in a variety of acoustic configurations with other musicians, ranging from duos to septets. Whether covering favorite hit songs by the likes of Bob Dylan, the Grateful Dead, The Velvet Underground, Jimi Hendrix, Louis Armstrong, or The Stanley Brothers, or playing original songs, we offer our audiences pleasing musicianship with harmonies, guitar, dobro, harmonica, bass, mandolin, and/or accordion at venues ranging from coffeehouses to festivals to weddings to bars to concert halls to parties.

Fantastic experience

The music was amazing, set the tone of the evening perfectly and Matt went above and beyond to get to know us and what we wanted. They even learned our wedding song!
