TEMPO Lounge ~ Doors 7 PM | Show at 7:30 PM

Join us for a special Old Time Monday with The Horsenecks in the Lounge.

The Horsenecks are Gabrielle Macrae and Barry Southern. Based in Astoria, Oregon, they are two multi-instrumentalists who have come together from traditional music backgrounds and found a sound that weaves through layers of influence that include early Appalachian stringband music, classic country, bluegrass and original folk.

Gabrielle's fiery fiddle style is the result of being raised in the Old Time music hotbed of Portland, OR and being exposed to the fiddle traditions of the Southeast US through years of traveling to festivals and learning from some of the greatest players in the genre. She gained notoriety as a clawhammer banjo player through her work with the Macrae Sisters, and formed the Horsenecks with Barry after the two met at a music festival in 2012.

Barry’s banjo and guitar playing range from thrilling and high-octane to moody and captivating, and his versatility shines whether flatpicking, playing clawhammer, or driving three-finger banjo. Barry has been a luminary in his home town of Liverpool’s music scene for over 20 years, playing lead guitar with cult heroes Tramp Attack, banjo with Liverpool's popular bluegrass party band The Loose Moose Stringband, and many more groups in the UK’s bluegrass and old time scene.

Both songwriters bring together their background in traditional music and modern influences across many genres to create a catalog of songs that speak to their place in the evolving story of traditional music. Their deft musicianship, powerful harmony singing, and creative instincts with old and new material have earned them a place among the leading interpreters of Old Time music today.

Their new album *In the West* is available now, out on Tiki Parlor Recordings. Recorded at the Rope Room Studio in Astoria Oregon.

“…The Horsenecks, release another set of moving songs with dynamic instrumentals. As with previous albums, the duo mine country, folk, and bluegrass playbooks, continuing to hone a brand of revamped traditionalism...” -John Amen, No Depression
