Event

Grüt with Voles at The Spot on Kirk

Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, the members of Grüt each draw from a wide spectrum of genres and influences, an openness that is reflected in all fours activity as leaders or members of many other types of groups. This unique confluence of disciplines and backgrounds is introducing new sounds to the Atlanta music scene, but their approach is also rooted in the legacy of one of the citys most beloved musicians, the recently deceased Col. Bruce Hampton. Col. Bruces influence is ubiquitous across Southeastern musical communities, and both Brandon Boone and Daniel Wytanis are veterans of his touring band. In the tradition of The Colonel, Grüt blends the predetermined with the spontaneous, is always open to the spirit of the moment, and above all, wants the effect of their music to be a joyful one.

Opening the night will be Roanoke's own Voles with their signature blend of folk influences in a dream pop atmosphere. Songwriter Seanmichael Poff (the Young Sinclairs/Missionaries) leads the group comprised of members Bailey Mann (Lost in Space Camp), Joshua Brima (Lazy Man Dub Band) and John Pence (Infinite Ways/Los Chupacabras) to round out a sound that is constantly evolving. Joining the group for the evening will be Patrick Cavanagh on trumpet.
