Crooked Still are, according to the Boston Globe, “the most important folk group to emerge from Boston since the early ’60s”.
Watch Crooked Still video - Shrewsbury Folk festival in England:
The group has received invitations from huge events like the historic Newport and Telluride Festivals in addition to numerous rave reviews from such publications as USA Today and Interview Magazine.
The group performs one of the most compelling forms of alternative bluegrass and string band music today.
Originally a quartet they lost their cellist over a year ago and the remaining members augmented with two new members bringing the number to five. The current incarnation has proven to be a great success and their latest recording, Still Crooked has been received with critical and public acclaim.
The music remains impossible to pigeonhole – inspired and adventurous while honouring Crooked Still’s folk roots.
