Description
Known for their gorgeous three-part harmonies blending bluegrass with a touch of western swing, the Americana trio Red Molly brings audiences to their feet with crisp musicianship and warm, engaging stage presence. The band consists of Laurie MacAllister (bass, banjo), Abbie Gardner (dobro, banjo), and Molly Venter (guitar). This past year, the ladies were invited to open for music legend Willie Nelson and they performed at the venerable RockyGrass festival in Colorado. Their new CD Light in the Sky spent 20 weeks on the Americana Music Association's Top 40 radio chart and charted as Folk DJ's #3 Top Album of 2012. This year, the band toured throughout Australia and Denmark and have been invited for return appearances at North Carolina's legendary music gathering—MerleFest and the Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion. ''Tick-tight arrangements, crystalline vocals and caramel harmonies.'' The Boston Globe "The Twin City's sweethearts lit up the stage, as a massive crowd of adoring fans sat mesmerized by their silky smooth harmonies and superb musicianship." Bristol Herald Courier Tickets: $32, $24, $18
