  • Bio

    The Skinny is a knee-slapping, tear-jerking, foot-stomping crowd playing not-so-traditional folk and bluegrass sounds, and loving every minute. These pickers combine sweet harmonies with dobro, banjo, guitar, fiddle, mandolin, accordion, ukelele and a rockin bass line, pulling you in 'til you wanna pick up anything that makes noise and play along too. ..

Frequent guests: Zac Matthews (Mandolin/Fiddle), John McGaraghan (Mandolin), Jared Milos (Bass), Thomas "Sweet Heart" Arndt (drums)

    The Skinny is so highly approved. We saw them at SP and then immediately made an indecent proposal for them to play my sister's wedding for a proper hoe down far from home on Calistoga. Later had Dave also at mine with MT Slim at Coatanoa in Peacadero. They will set anyone up the bomb!

    hey were you guys able to get tickets for that Devil Makes Three concert last weekend at the Plough? I would have totally gone to that but the tickets sold out so quickly! I noticed you're playing at the Nomad next week! That's awesome! I will have to try to stop by for that!
