Event
THE MAMMALS
$12 ADV / $15 DOS
A high-octane Americana quintet from New Yorks storied Hudson Valley, The Mammals carry on the work of Pete Seeger & Woody Guthrie with a deep original repertoire and signature trad is rad sound.
Some of the best songwriting of their generation. (LA Weekly) A string band at the core, The Mammals augment their sound with drums and electric guitar to create a collectively harmonized howl as thrilling and rocking as any band currently subverting folk traditions. (No Depression)
Founded in 2001 by Seegers grandson, Tao, second-generation fiddler/singer, Ruth Ungar, and banjo/guitar songsmith, Mike Merenda, The Mammals reemerged in 2017 stronger than ever (Folk Alley) fronted by Mike + Ruthy along with drums, bass, and pedal steel. Known for their jubilant, high-energy shows, The Mammals deftly move from older-than-dirt banjo duets to sound-the-alarm topical fare thats right in line with the times, bouncing from roof-raising hoe-downs to hear-a-pin-drop a cappella balladry.
"The Mammals dont suffer from multiple genre syndrome, they celebrate it as if gleefully aware that the sound barriers separating old-timey music, vintage pop, and contemporary folk are as permeable as cotton. (Washington Post) Their dynamic shows regularly bring a tear to the eye and hope to the hearts of listeners of all generations. In an era of disconnect, The Mammals work to re-connect thru their truth-telling lyrics, off-the-cuff storytelling, and euphoric instrumentals.
In 2018 The Mammals will be touring internationally in support of their new full-length release including the singles My Baby Drinks Water, a mothers lullaby plea to protect clean water, and Culture War, a song that gets right to the heart of the fight for the American soul. (No Depression)
