Three standout voices from the Bay Area come together to explore the stark beauty and emotional depth of Gillian Welch’s songwriting. Trillian Welch is an reimagining of these haunting, poetic songs, arranged in rich three-part harmonies with Meredith Edgar, Jill Rogers, and Margaret Belton.
lespecial is redefining the term “power trio”. The multi-instrumentalists from Connecticut continue to push the boundaries of what a three-piece band is capable of both live and in the studio ahead of their latest album, “Odd Times”. The band’s signature blend of “heavy future groove” combines headbanging metal riffage and surgical rhythmic precision with bone shaking 808s, sub synths and ethereal vocal stylings for a dance floor that welcomes moshing, dancing and hip swaying alike. Listeners are taken on a journey to the musical netherworld through esoteric soundscapes punctuated by raw, primal power.
The band boasts an unmistakable sound that fuses elements of disco, acid jazz, funk, and Latin rhythms, with which they conquered the hearts of audiences not only in their native Venezuela but also in different corners of the world.
Reminiscent of genre-benders like Jack White, Chris Thile, and Sam Bush, Dead Winter Carpenters harmoniously blend refined musical ability with a scarcely restrained tendency to let it all hang out. The result is a controlled burn, a riveting sound, and a connection with fans that sells out shows and has the band sharing stages with the likes of Jason Isbell, Easton Corbin, Greensky Bluegrass, Rising Appalachia, Railroad Earth, The Infamous Stringdusters and Hard Working Americans.
First appearing at Sweetwater in March of 2024, the live mic, hosted open Bluegrass jam series typically occurs on the fourth Sunday of each month. This community event has grown a strong following of Bluegrass players and fans alike, with it’s popular, casual performance-oriented jam format welcoming Intermediate to Advanced players to the famed Sweetwater stage. With a curated support band drawn from a rotating cast of talented CBA members, who provide a welcoming and inclusive environment as well as hot on-the-fly picking and singing backup, the Sessions are always full of fun, driving rhythm, and high-lonesome energy!
Throughout her career, George’s voice and songwriting prowess have set her apart from Nashville trends, even as she shared stages with legends like Willie Nelson, Brandi Carlile, and Loudon Wainwright. Her late 2018 release “Victoria George & The High Lonesome” was a rootsy standout, but when the pandemic hit, live music everywhere came to a halt and so did George’s momentum.
