Session Americana at Caffe Lena - 01/14/2012

Session Americana

This fun-loving, musically superb roots music ensemble from Boston has swept up their hometown's top awards and taken their show on the road. Comprised of six guys who play with some of the folk world's top acts (Patty Griffin, Lori McKenna, Treat Her Right), they gather tightly around a small café table and throw themselves into a repertoire of classic country music played on an old-time suitcase drum kit, a vintage electric bass, a range of acoustic instruments, and a WWII-era field organ. They draw their audience in with great tunes, theatricality, warmth, joy and camaraderie.
