SUMMARY:2nd Annual Bluegrass Winter Heater feat. The MilBillies + Special Guests
DESCRIPTION:Anodyne Coffee Roasting Co. presents an evening of live music featuring performances by The Milbillies\, Mama Said String Band and Buffalo Galaxy! \nThe MilBillies \nwww.themilbillies.com \nEstablished in late 2018\, The MilBillies hit the ground running\, bringing their unique synthesis of traditional and progressive bluegrass to venues and festivals throughout the upper Midwest and beyond. They have crafted a genuinely thrilling live show\, taking “high-energy” musicianship to another level while enthralling the crowd with intoxicating melodies and lyrical subject matter any troubadour would tip their hat to. \nAll of this has garnered a WAMI nomination for New Artist of the Year\, an IBMA Official Showcase\, a win at the John Hartford Memorial Festival band contest\, a loyal following\, and glowing reviews—Bluegrass Unlimited says The MilBillies sound “straddles the line between the traditional and progressive schools of bluegrass along with hints of blues\, punk and country\,” while Milwaukee Record lauds their “punk-tinged barroom bluegrass.” But whether you hear “animated urban style grass” (Bluegrass Today) or simply “an explosion of banjos\, guitars and storytelling” (Shepherd Express)\, you’re sure to leave a MilBillies show with a better understanding of what all the fuss is about. \nMama Said String Band \nwww.mamasaidstringband.com \nMama Said String Band is an instant classic\, since 2016 they’ve been bringing their own brand of the grassroots music you’re so used to hearing to stages everywhere. Based out of Louisville\, KY\, Mama Said String Band brings a refreshing reinvention to Bluegrass\, Folk and Americana while focusing on vocal harmonies and contemporary instrumentation. Having won several notable regional awards including album of the year in the Lexington Music Awards for “Carry The Water”\, Best Bluegrass Band in the Appalachian Arts and Entertainment Awards\, Bluegrass Artist of the Year in the Lexington Music Awards and with three nominations under their belt\, they have made a notable imprint in the Kentucky Music Scene. They bring big\, relatable emotions and honest songwriting to every show\, leaving fans always wanting more. \nBuffalo Galaxy \nwww.buffalogalaxy.com \nDeep Space\, Light Speed\, Bluegrass! \nDust from the years of performing has coalesced to form Buffalo Galaxy. \nEach member brings with them a tradition of Bluegrass and American music as their launchpad\, creating moments of energy and intensity generated by light-speed bluegrass\, while exploring the deep-space between emotions. \nIn their three years as a band\, Buffalo Galaxy has played over 200 shows around the greater midwest and Rocky Mountains. They have shared the stage with the Kitchen Dwellers\, Dead Horses\, and Daniel Donato. The band has brought their signature style to some of the regions finest festivals like Blue Ox\, Boats and Bluegrass and many more.
