Praised by NPR for their "upbeat, poppy vibe; energetic, driving rhythms; and virtuosic solos,” Boston's Twisted Pine explores a sound they call Americana funk. Check them out here in a Paste Magazine Studio on the Road: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hJBc2h70gA "We’re rooted in bluegrass," says bassist Chris Sartori, "continually inspired by explorers like Bela Fleck, Jerry Douglas, and Sierra Hull. Our latest album Right Now [from Signature Sounds Recordings] takes this heritage into a new dimension. Our bluegrass is jazzy, our indie folk is poppy, our grooves are funky." Twisted Pine [Kathleen Parks, fiddle; Dan Bui, mandolin; Chris Sartori, bass; Anh Phung, flute] grooves with fearless improvisation and intricate arrangements. "They were once bluegrass," wrote The Boston Globe, "but ... this Boston band has become something else, a wider version of string band, boundary jumpers akin to outfits like Punch Brothers, Nickel Creek, and Crooked Still.”
“Twisted Pine's latest album "Right Now is progressive bluegrass or maybe chamber folk, or prog rock, or jazz fusion or just pop with an experimental bent. Whatever the genre, give the group a bluegrass Grammy for good measure” - The Boston Herald
“Twisted Pine doesn’t just break the rules, they rewrite them” - Glide
“Instrumental virtuosity — the band’s calling card — abounds on their latest album, Right Now, but so too do moments of sheer pop glory, funky all-day grooves, and spacecraft sonics.” - No Depression
Beau Sasser Trio opens
Beau Sasser has been a staple artist in the live music scene for decades. Sasser started his career with his original project Uncle Sammy before moving on to tour with the late great Melvin Sparks, Alan Evans Trio and Ryan Montbleau just to name a few. He is currently in the progressive funk/fusion band, Kung Fu and working with his own band, The Escape Plan. The Beau Sasser Trio is yet another outlet for Beau to pay tribute to the classic organ trio sound with soul classics in the boogaloo and acid jazz stylings. Beau pays tributes to the giants of the genre such as Charles Earland, Lou Donaldson, Melvin Sparks, Grant Green and so much more. Rounding out the trio Beau keeps a rotating cast of many of live music’s most exciting guitarists and drummers.
