redgirl

Well, just like you-we are trying to adjust the constant changes and opportunities presented to us in these unprecedented times. To lighten the load, and to give us a chance to play music, we have started a little LIVE FACEBOOK stream series every Saturday for our beloved mountain community in the Kootenays. It’s called the Saturday Quarantine Social and is co-hosted by the most wonderful Shred Kelly band (from Fernie as well).

ALL are welcome to join us…from the comfort of your own home! #stayhome

On October 1st, 2016 we are pleased as punch to be openers for the beautiful clawhammer stylings of Chris Coole at Fernie’s first Flyfishing and music weekend GillBilly

Details to Follow!

Well, we have regrouped and revived, and are now refreshed and ready to play some new tunes! For the Spring and Summer of 2013, Redgirl is giddy at the thought of returning to some of our former bluegrassy roots (form as the crow flies days), by adding to our repetoire: the clawhammer banjo (Anie), the mandolin (Mike) and Steve’s “new” 1953 Kay Upright Bass! We have have been a few playing tunes with the likes of Jenny Lester, Elena Yeung, even Jason and Pharis Romero. We have jammed on old-timey music in a variety of kitchens and decks here in Southern BC (even thought they feel new-timey to us), and we are coming up with some original pieces to bring your way.

We have high hopes of hitting a few festivals and Street Fairs, and might even return to the recording studio to see what kinds of material we can capture live! For now, we watch the snow fly, and hunker down to play scales, warm up our harmonies and, if we must, sip scotch.
