Molly Tuttle and her band Golden Highway—Bronwyn Keith-Hynes (fiddle), Dominick Leslie (mandolin), Shelby Means (bass), and Kyle Tuttle (banjo)—have brought their Crooked Tree tour to New England, performing two shows in Massachusetts: at Belleville Congregational Church in Newburyport tonight and Marshfield Fairgrounds on Saturday. The latter is the first of three days of the traveling Flannel Jam festival, with which Tuttle and the band head to the Maine Craft Distilling in Portland on Sunday and Cisco Brewers in Nantucket on Monday.
Tuttle, who has won the International Bluegrass Music Association Award for Female Vocalist of the Year last week, also shared a live performance video for the title track to Crooked Tree in honor of Alopecia Awareness Month. The video was filmed during their sold-out release show at Nashville’s legendary Station Inn this past spring, celebrating the acclaimed new album. Tuttle and the band were joined by Jerry Douglas, who co-produced Crooked Tree with her. You can watch it here.
