Rita Hosking's got the spirit, and she knows how to reach ours through her grace, heart, chops, and spunk. With award-winning, country-folk music spanning 9 albums and 20 years of touring, this sweet-singing troubadour is a heavy hitter in the Northern California songwriting scene.
Her style is lauded for story and sense of place, and her performances praised with capturing the audience. A descendant of Cornish miners who sang in the mines of Cornwall and Grass Valley, CA, Hosking grew up with a deep regard for folk music and the power of the voice.
Sean Feder is Hosking’s longtime partner in song, and is a consummate accompanist on dobro, banjo, guitar and voice. Bill Dakin contributes heartfelt upright bass and voice, and Andy Lentz adds his outstanding fiddle playing. Together, The Rita Hosking Band delivers what Acoustic Magazine calls “timeless, unhurried elegance.”
