We’re welcoming back the Lonesome Ace Stringband for their third appearance at Longstaff House! Don’t (ever) miss these guys, absolute masters.
The Lonesome Ace Stringband is an old-time band with bluegrass credentials playing some righteous Americana music. There’s a depth of groove and sense of space not often heard in bluegrass today, a level of instrumental interplay uncommon in old-time, and an on-stage rapport that transcends all of this.
Three Canadians lost in the weird and wonderful traditional country music of the American South, the band members Chris Coole (banjo), John Showman (fiddle) and Max Malone (bass) are each journeyman musicians and veterans of some of Canada’s top roots music acts (New Country Rehab, The David Francey Band, The Foggy Hogtown Boys, Fiver).
