Old Habits at The Pour House Music Hall
Friday, April 4
|
w/ Sweet By and By For Fans of ~Old Crow Medicine Show, Old & in the Way, Sam Bush. Old Habits was a traditional bluegrass band hailing from Raleigh, NC. Times have changed...we evolved...now we're not sure what it is. The band's origins go back to when brothers Craig & Bennett Thompson started picking with Lin Peterson in early 2002. After pursuing newgrass for a while (in the original Old Habits) the 3 got together in April 2003 with Brian English for a garage picking session at the Groveland Estate near NCSU. Several fiddle tunes later the sound was complete. In 2006, the guys welcomed Chad Johnson to the group on guitar. The members have similar interests in playing traditional and progressive bluegrass, drawing influences from Old Crow Medicine Show, Tony Rice, Del McCoury, Sam Bush and the Weary Boys. Old Habits has developed a classic sound, fueled by powerful harmonies and strong instrumentals. Expect a fun show filled with a mix of originals, traditional bluegrass & familiar cover songs.
