Mother Vinegar is a four-piece rock band whose
intense original sound has been described
as "Tom Waits and Ravi Shankar being sexually
assaulted by Joe Satriani and Gibby Haynes."
From the Roxaway Music Festival profile:
"It's been a long time since a band has attracted so much attention and critical praise in such a short time. Since forming last year, Mother Vinegar have
simply become a phenomenon in the southeast. Their now-legendary live shows have earned them a storied reputation and a dedicated fanbase rarely seen in such
a young career. Though the band is new, the players have been around the block a time or two. Formed by multi-intstrumentalist & Umphrey's McGee songwriting contributor Karl Engelmann and drummer Kevin Cassels, Mother Vinegar (which also includes bassist Jeff Hinkle and guitar virtuoso Tommy Dennison) blend a potent mix of rock, funk, reggae, jazz, bluegrass, and violent heavy metal into a totally unique stew. Their self-titled debut album has made waves on several indie radio stations and their live shows continue to satisfy the faithful and convert the uninitiated. Be sure to come see what all the fuss is about."
