Portland Folk Duo Pretty Gritty, with The Holy Smokes

Friday, January 31, 7:30 PM (7 door): Portland Folk Duo Pretty Gritty.  “Pretty Gritty is one of the most refreshing duos In the Folk-Americana Space. They achieve a harmony and display a chemistry that no other male/female duo has managed to do in the modern era of Roots-Rockin’ sounds.”  Opening for Pretty Gritty is The Holy Smokes.

Holy Smokes! Don't be surprised by this hot new Country band out of Eugene, Oregon. Comprised of veteran touring singer-songwriters Ky Burt (guitar, banjo; www.kyburt.com) and Sarah Holtschlag (guitar, saw; https://soundcloud.com/sarahholtschlag) and backed by the talents of Jessilyn Brinkerhoff (vocal, fiddle) and Matt Keenan (bass, longtime Sugar Beets band member), these four individuals comprise the core of a band bridging old country stylins' (think Jimmie Rogers, Bob Wills, Hank Williams) with a modern edgy and heart string touch all their own. Often paired with drums and pedal steel as well, their first gig was opening for the international touring band Front Country in October 2019 to a wide applause. Watch out for Holy Smokes! coming out of the gates this 2020!
