BLIND OWL BAND

"If Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters kidnapped the Kingston Trios kids and released them upon the world twenty years later you would have The Blind Owl Band and like a locomotive with a full load of coal in the furnace this band is barreling forward about to burst on the national scene". - Popa Tunes

Rowdy String Music think M&S without the pretences or maybe OCMS not trying too hard, think of the soundtrack for a Tarantino / Rodriguez re-make of Oh Brother Where Art Thou, think The Blind Owl Band. Beat-Surrender

The Blind Owl Band. The four piece outfit is new to the scene, but not new to eclectic sounds, traditional instrumentation and influences of some more obscure bands in the business. Geographically in the music world, location can often define a band. Hailing from Saranac Lake, these bearded boys have characterized their sound as if they stood on top of their mountain reaching out their beat up instruments grabbing various concepts of music, holding it captive ultimately for a presentation unique to the scene. On stage, they knocked the nit and grit right out of their strings. Added vocal harmonies invite us to the darker realm, where we were lead through a journey of traditional roots, dirty jams and down right scary turns along the way. Be brave and bold, these North Country boys can lighten it up a bit with Irish pub tunes as well. Surely, those meandering out on the street missed two great acts. The energy inside was so alive you could reach out and hold on. As was the rest Tom Miller UpState LIVE
