keither Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hey live music fans!We've got a very special announcement for ya'll today... get yourselves ready for a high energy 'newgrass' party with the first ever visit to Vancouver from San Francisco, California'sHOT BUTTERED RUMIn the short time since Hot Buttered Rum debuted its music, dubbed as a “High Altitude Acoustic Experienceâ€, the band has been praised by fans, peers and national media alike, recognizing Hot Buttered Rum for their ‘stunning instrumental and vocal virtuosity’. Hot Buttered Rum is attracting a truly multi-generational audience with its ability to create an undeniably hip and fresh sound that weaves together the grounded traditions of folk and bluegrass with the modern influences of rock-n-roll, reggae and acoustic singer/songwriters. Hot Buttered Rum’s musical evolution has not only defined their sound, with their extensive touring schedule the band has become established as one of the nation’s hottest young touring acts since setting off as a group of friends on a trail in the High Sierras in the early part of the decade to emerge as a band, appropriately named, Hot Buttered Rum.The past couple years have been truly incredible for Hot Buttered Rum. They have performed at premier music festivals such as Telluride Bluegrass, Newport Folk and South By Southwest, and received an invitation to perform at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass 5. The band’s talent has led them to the stage with artists Phil Lesh, Ben Harper, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Chris Thile, Bela Fleck, Peter Rowan, Billy Nershi and Mike Marshall to name a few.Saturday June 23The Polynesian Room1489 East Hastings$12 advance tickets on sale Friday May 4 at Zulu Records (1972 W. 4th Ave.) & Highlife World Music (1317 Commercial Drive).www.hotbutteredrum.netwww.myspace.com/hotbutteredrumwww.bonfirepresents.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
