Rebellious, raucous, energetic, and riddled with fiddle, banjo, guitar, and big ol’ harmonies, nothing will blow up your kilt like a run-in with the Tan and Sober Gentlemen. Hailing from Durham/Chapel Hill, this acoustic fivesome serves up Irish standards, American roots tunes, Bluegrassy, folky stuff, all with a punky edge to keep it real.
Known not only for top-notch musicianship, the boys have also been known to deliver bold banter, and pleasing on-stage shenanigans ranging from the new “planking on a standup bass” to the old classic “falling into a whiskey barrel mid fiddle solo.”
