KEITH LITTLE AND THE LITTLEBAND ADD MORE THAN A LITTLE BLUEGRASS TO THE SPRING LINEUP

Keith Little was born into a musical family living in the Sierra Nevada foothills, right in between our two Strawberries. During his forty plus years as a performing and studio artist, Keith has been a key member of many nationally and internationally renowned touring bands, such as Vern Williams Band, Peter Rowan Bluegrass Band, and the David Grisman Bluegrass experience, to name a few.  Besides having tremendous skill on any instrument with strings, Little is also a very talented vocalist and composer.  As leader of the LittleBand, he brings together the best in the business, from both near and far.  For this performance, Keith will be joined by Tatiana Hargreaves (fiddle), Sharon Gilchrist (mandolin), Michael Witcher (dobro), Josh Tharp (banjo), and Max Schwartz (string bass).  We are so glad to welcome this group of remarkable players to Strawberry Music Festival –Spring 2018.

LINDSAY LOU JOINS SPRING LINEUP

We’re pleased to welcome back Michigan songbird Lindsay Lou and her band, two years and nine months after their first Strawberry appearance at the Fall 2015 Festival.  Since that time, they have been busy turning heads with a signature sound that has deep roots in a variety of complimenting genres, such as Americana, Bluegrass and swing.   True to a classically beautiful form, Lindsay Lou’s voice floats like layers of windswept silk over a masterful instrumental medley.   Whether it’s on stage or in the studio this group never disappoints the listener and there’s no doubt that our audience is in for a real auditory treat when Lindsay Lou returns to Strawberry Music’s Spring 2018 Festival!

 

FRAZEY FORD JUST ANNOUNCED FOR SPRING

Singer-songwriter Frazey Ford is well known for her soulfully tremulous vocal restraint, first as founding member of the Canadian folk group Be Good Tanyas, and more recently as a solo artist.  With the release of her second full length album, Indian Ocean, Ford’s familiar rustic harmonies have evolved into a full-throated exuberance that is real and relatable.  Frazey Ford has instinctively tapped into a lush lyrical tradition and given a bold and passionate voice to a collection of narratives; ranging from pain and tough truths, to love, trust, and contrition.  We are really thrilled for this wonder woman to join us, with her band, at Strawberry Music Festival- Spring 2018.
