Molly Tuttle and Cristina Vane live
Saw them at the Crocodile Cafe in Seattle on Sunday. Very surprised in a good way by Molly Tuttle’s band. While I love traditional bluegrass her band played some covers like Dire Wolf and White Rabbit and she was a very unselfish player- giving plenty of room to the other members of the band to showcase their musicianship, which was again not strictly traditional bluegrass. Cristina Vane doesn’t seem well known but she’s really good playing slide guitar and had a wonderful stage presence

The last time I saw Molly I had my young daughter with me. A couple days before that we saw Billy Strings. She was enamored by how well Billy plays guitar. I told her that Molly was as good and she said "no way!". Two songs in to Molly's show she looked at me with a shocked look on her face and just smiled, acknowledging that I was right.
Molly is such a professional.

Great band indeed! I saw them last week in their Portland show. What a memorable night of entertainment. I've listened to Molly and GH via recordings and YT videos but this show was a rousing reminder of how especially inspiring live music can be. Everything was well crafted and so professionally done - from the set-list (new and old, originals, covers, traditional) to the "patter," the mix of light-show and straight acoustic style presentation and, of course, the stellar musicianship - everything tight in a way that kept things flowing and under control, yet warm and friendly and fun. The crowning glory is the obvious chemistry among band members. Pure Gold indeed - see them together while you can!
And yes, Cristina Vane was a surprise delight. She's talented (songwriting and playing,) fun and irreverent in a great way. I bought a CD from her after the show. Last edited by Dogma; 10-18-2023 at 01:15 PM. Reason: over-use of the word "great!"
