PossumHaw will play Recovery Lounge
UPPER JAY — Vermont band PossumHaw, which combines the drive of bluegrass and the lyricism of folk, will perform Friday at the Upper Jay Art Center, aka Recovery Lounge.
Formed in 2004 by husband-wife team Ryan (banjo) and Colby Crehan (singing) and lead guitarist Charlie Eiseman, the group has evolved with vocal harmonies and acoustic instrumentation. Mandolinist Stephen Waud joined the group in 2009 and bassist Mitch Baron in 2013.
Jazz and blues influences weave through a repertoire of original music fueled by Crehan’s songwriting. In 2015, Crehan’s song “Road to Mora” was named Vermont Song of the Year, and Crehan was named Vermont Vocalist of the Year (Tammie Awards, Times-Argus).
The show begins at 8 p.m. A $15 donation is suggested. The venue is located at 12198 Route 9N in Upper Jay.
