Josh Harty at Grateful Fred's

Event information

The third generation of musicians out of the Dakotas, Josh Harty is never far from his roots but always inventing new ways to honor the old. His latest solo project, "A Long List of Lies" (Magnolia Recording Co.) shows it and has garnered a fast following. The eleven tracks are as authentic as American music gets. Maybe that's why "A Long List of Lies" debuted at #8 on the European Americana chart.

"Harty has a warm, intimate performance style. You can ease into his songs from the first note and his voice has that perfect combination of resignation and hope. The songs are all downbeat, even mournful, and Harty's performances are utterly convincing, whether on the doom-laden "Whiskey & Morphine", the more upbeat tune (but downbeat lyrics) of "Sweet Solution". . . Jeremy Searle, Americana UK, 2011.

Josh will be supported by "The Good Intentions" the Liverpool-based Americana/Bluegrass trio who's latest CD "Someone Else's Time" is enjoying great reviews..

...“The Good Intentions have raised the bar for second albums...the authentic instrumentation and old timey
feeling of this CD harkens back to a simpler time...
