The Squash Blossom Boys @ Cowgirl

Event Description

The traditional, yet contemporary, Squash Blossom Boys bring together a mix of Old Time, Swing, and driving Bluegrass music. Versed in jazz improvisation and music arrangement, the band creates a unique sound that explores the roots and boundaries of Americana. The band’s stylistic versatility lends itself to the demands of multiple audiences. They have played at festivals, performance spaces, bars, restaurants, and grower’s markets. The music of the Squash Blossom Boys accommodates both calm, easy-listening atmospheres, as well as upbeat lively venues. With Dustin Orbesen, Kit Murray, Kyle Malone, and Maren Hatch, the Squash Blossom Boys have played everything from jazz to reggae only to finally become a Bluegrass band. Occasionally, mandolinist Tristan Scroggins, violinist Sam Weiss, and multiinstrumentalist Ezra Bussman perform alongside the core quartet. Together, the boys have won several awards including Pickin’ in the Pines and Albuquerque Folk Festival’s band competitions, as well as, The Weekly Alibi’s “Best of Burque".
