Life long rock n roll agitators John Coakley and Sam Rasiotis (x- SHLSHKD, Colossus and Loam) formed DIRTYWINGS with local scoundrel and cougar-bait Sean Wiggins. They believe in radical ideas such as collaboration, community and collective action and often perform with other like-minded shit starters.
These criminals include: Eric Strickler (slide guitar, vocals), Annie Burns (accordion, mandolin, vocals), Emily Faith (vocals), Don Cambria (guitar, vocals), Alan Baker (pump harmonium, piano), Janene Otten (vocals, flute, percussion), Jimmy Artache (harmonica, piano, vocals), Jason Carr (vocals), Kelli Eva Ellis (vocals), Comer Benbrook (vocals), Bradford Parks (vocals), Karen Baumiester (vocals)
Hi Dirty Wings, Hope you are well. Just letting you know I have a show coming up in a couple weeks. It’s a special showcase featuring violin, piano and guest back-up vocalists. We are taking these songs for an orchestral turn!
