Painted Blue... debut original tune "Yours to Save" @ Chaplin's Music Cafe 2-27-09
Like a band of misfit gypsies, you would probably expect to be pick pocketed and thieved by the band members of Painted Blue. In fact, they steal the hearts and breath of their listeners away with their very special blend of bluegrass, folk, jam-band and old-timey music. While Painted Blue can bring the house down with high energy rhythms and break-neck licks that would make your favorite grandma get up and dance, the group can also bring a sensitive soul to tears with songs of longing, hardship, and woe.
A haphazard group, Painted Blue may appear at first sight a motley quartet of random souls thrown together for the mere benefit of merry-making and tom foolery. But don't be misled! The music is the tie that binds these folks together and wraps their audiences up, shakes them about, and leaves them all thirsting for more. Painted Blue released their first labor of love, Time Rolls On, in 2007 to fans everywhere.
Kyle Spriggle, of Shinbone Magazine, wrote of Time Rolls On:
"This group honestly is one of the best things I've heard in ages. Their sound is something comfortable and aged, but unique. Kind of like a really good wine. You sample it and the more you enjoy the blending of eclectic tastes and savor the relaxed soulful influences you kind of fall into a daydream. Part folk artist and part Grateful Dead, these folks really have a definitive and deep sound. I for one look forward to seeing them when I can."
