Lonesome Ace Stringband

About This Event

SMAC Fave!! Ya know we get more than our share of string bands pitched to us these days. But with all the rebooting and reinventions of bluegrass and old timey music, every once in while something more pure comes through and I was so glad we hosted this band. EVERYONE loved them! Case in point from from Canada, the Lonesome Ace Stringband is an old-time band with bluegrass chops that play some righteous folk and country music. The trio’s sound is anchored in the fiddle and clawhammer banjo of John Showman and Chris Coole. They are joined by a rotating cast of extraordinary upright bassists (including founding member Max Malone, Noah Harrington, and Lotus Wight). There’s a depth of groove and sense of space not often heard in bluegrass today, a level of instrumental interplay and vocal blend uncommon in old-time, and an on-stage rapport that transcends all of this. Take a minute to listen to a sweet ballad on YouTube . But no worries they can S&@t kick it with the rest of them. WE LOVE them!
