As if from the soil itself, DIRTY GREEN emerged in the summer of 2005 for the sake of the song after collaborating with singer/songwriter Aaron Mitchell.
Through innovative percussion, melodic bass-lines, bluegrass flatpicking and wails, and smooth 'n' twangy guitar leads DIRTY GREEN has cultivated a hybrid of authentic, yet truly original music planted in early american roots. Influenced by, but not limited to american folk, americana and early country DIRTY GREEN offers a wide array of original ballads, pseudo-rockabilly romps, and a hearty batch of heart-wailing folk songs.
Starting in 2006 DIRTY GREEN played a two year long, bi-monthly residency at The Horseshoe while also playing other venues/shows such as The Piece Brewery, The Barley Wine Fest,The OLV Country Fest, The Heartland Cafe, Betty's Blue Star Lounge, The Darkroom, Quenchers and The Razor & Di show on WLUW. DIRTY GREEN is also proud to have hosted local roots showcase events, such as The Johnny Cash B-day bash and The New Years Ball (featuring Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash.)
If your looking for the grit, good times, tears in the beer or anything in between then you must come and see DIRTY GREEN.
Cheers.
