   About HOTCHA!
HOTCHA! "Dust Bowl Roots with a Big Bad Beat" Born in the swamp. Raised on the mountain. Worked in the mines. Play on the porch. Well, that's only true metaphorically. We don't actually have a porch. HOTCHA! (Beverly Kreller and Howard Druckman) nonetheless feel as though their music fits the description: Rustic, rural songs of work and faith, delivered with a vintage vibe and the energy of a runaway train. HOTCHA! creates a distinctive musical blend of old-time western, bluegrass, early swing and country gospel. If you could take a picture of HOTCHA!'s music, it would be a grainy, sepia-toned portrait of depression-era musicians with nothing but an old Sears-Roebuck guitar and a nickel in hand for the jitney dance. If you listen to HOTCHA!'s music, you'll hear a unique combination of accordion and bodhran (Celtic drum) alongside gritty guitar, wailing harmonica and soaring vocal harmonies.

You were a hit! We've enjoyed your performance and your rousing songs at Chapters Songwriters Showcase this afternoon. I hope you'll agree to do it again soon!
