Sounds Like
High-Energy Americana Folk/Rock, Bluegrass & Rockin’ Jams. At live shows people sometimes say that we jam like America or The Grateful Dead. Or that Deb’s singing sounds like Edie Brickell, Sheryl Crow, Joni Mitchell or Julianna Hatfield. Either way, we invite you to sit back with your favorite tasty beverage and enjoy the tunes. Drop us a line and tell us what you think!
The Porchlights came to be after many late-night back porch jam sessions and open mics turned into benefit concerts and coffee house gigs. Deb Hilton met Billy Kneebone at one of her first open mics at Charly’s in Flagstaff. The two hit it off musically and began writing songs together in the Spring of 1999.
Now, with 4 albums of original material under their belts, The Porchlights are happily at work on their 5th release titled Peace Pipe Dream, which will be complete (fingers crossed) by Summertime ’08.
Some recent highlights include opening up the Little Feat show at the Orpheum Theatre in Flagstaff and opening for Cross Canadian Ragweed at the Museum Club also in Flagstaff. When Brewer and Shipley came to Flagstaff, Deb & Kneebone were happy to play a set of music following their concert at Mogollon Brewery. They are also pleased to have played at the first ever Pickin’ in the Pines Bluegrass & Acoustic Music Festival in ’06 at the beautiful Pine Mountain Amphitheare in Flagstaff.
The Porchlights are passionate about writing, recording, performing live & traveling. You can find them playing at the theatres, taverns, restaurants, brewerys, acoustic music venues and coffeehouses all over the Southwest.
Some of their favorite cover songs to play live are "Ain’t Wastin’ Time" by Allman Brothers, "About a Girl" by Nirvana, "Pigs on the Wing" by Pink Floyd, "Last Time" by the Rolling Stones, "All the Way Home" & "Hell Hole" by Spinal Tap and two themes from Lord of the Rings, "The Hobbits" and "The Fellowship".
