The Devil Makes Three
Like the Violent Femmes before them, Santa Cruz's the Devil Makes Three infuse their country-bluegrass swing with a raucous punk spirit. A popular group on the festival circuit, the trio spins its odes to Tennessee whiskey and brawling with acoustic guitar, banjo, and stand-up bass — an economical set-up that makes for some surprisingly danceable music. Lead singer Pete Bernhard's voice is a little rough around the edges, but the group's harmonies go down smooth. Too restless to play the typical bluegrass venues and too musically sophisticated for your average bar band, Devil Makes Three are a rare breed: wild traditionalists.
Brown Bird
Brown Bird incorporates a wood-smoked voice with layers of guitar, banjo, violin, double bass, cello and bass drum to create an original, traditional American sound. The Rhode Island duo captures their intense energy, high-spirited live show in their latest album, "Salt For Salt."
