An evening with Blue Lass at Cafe No9

Event information

Authentic and heartfelt playing weave together with a love of American bluegrass, old time and
folk music to form the unique sound of Blue Lass. A combination of original, traditional and
contemporary material creates striking sets, with both songs and instrumental pieces
transporting listeners with genuine and encapsulating stories. Their debut EP, Skylines & Coal
Mines, was released in September 2024.

The all-female lineup features acoustic guitar, mandolin, and clawhammer banjo, and they
are often accompanied by additional fiddle and double bass. Each member steps forward to
lead songs and contributes to strong three-part harmonies around a single microphone - just as it was done in the fifties. Their choreography around the single mic gives performances an authentic vintage feel, displaying a raw and authentic approach to their music, with a friendly and fun on-stage manner bringing a lively atmosphere to audiences.

Blue Lass’ music boasts innovative arrangements, reflecting their appreciation of modern
american folk music whilst still in keeping with the roots of the genre, with virtuosic improvised
solos confidently embellishing pieces throughout. The tone of their originals varies from moody to nostalgic, travelling from landscapes of nature to the streets of the city.

Blue Lass’ music is clean and sensitive, empowered and dynamic, and they will fill any venue to
the brim with both sound and character.
