about

The Red Squirrel Chasers blend their diverse musical influences and interests seamlessly into a new, and yet very familiar sound. They have merged their decade of playing dances together with a common interest in that musical territory occupying the hazy borderline between the old-time string band sounds of the 1920s & '30s and the lonesome bluegrass sounds that emerged in the 1940s. The results -- spare melody lines, well blended vocal and instrumental textures and a streamlined sound. Together, the Red Squirrel Chasers combine red hot fiddling, tight harmony singing, a solid mix of old and new material and a powerful band sound that skips along and soars effortlessly.
