Friday Night Live with Fog Holler
Sep

Friday Night Live with Fog Holler

“Their twists and turns had me smiling for their entire set. I have now seen them several times...and I continue to love them and their approach to their art with one foot in the past and one in the future... a band like no other in the world of bluegrass.” – Ken Irwin, Rounder Records (Founder)

Fog Holler is a bluegrass band with an edge. What gives the band that edge is a topic of hot debate. For some, it’s musicianship - these bluegrass cats shred. For others, it’s the songwriting, traditional in style but topical in substance. Sometimes, they undeniably snare people with the squad factor - folks see 4 grown adults in matching monochrome, and they get curious. The secret, according to Fog Holler, is simply that they write and play bluegrass in 2024 with similar intentions but in a very different context from the genre’s originators. Inspired by a range of influences from The Stanley Brothers to Buck Owens to Meshuggah, Fog Holler breathes fresh life into well-worn forms like the murder ballad and the power waltz. Described by two-time Grammy Award Winner Cathy Fink as “The next generation of the many shades of grass”, Fog Holler’s captivating tunes and coordinated outfits are quickly enthralling longtime bluegrass fans and newcomers alike.

Tickets are $10 in advance or $15 at the door and available on our website.
