Ian George & the Knee Pockets / Nathaniel Talbot

Ian George & The Knee Pockets https://www.rowboatmusic.com/iangeorge Ian George along with his gorgeous band The Knee Pockets (talented, ferocious young men) have one motive : ALLOW A GOOD TIME. The band delivers the sort of concert you’ll likely dance, sway, sing, laugh and maybe even cry(!) to. Yesiredoo, a spontaneous and ferocious musical ride teeming with whimsicality, clever arrangements – interrupted by triumphant tangents – and outlandish solos grounded by George’s gauzy voice and by the simple strength of a good song. Expect an engaging and dynamic string of gentle and not so gentle folk-rock adventures. https://nathanieltalbot.com/ “Talbot pushes our understanding of our selves through the intensity of his songcraft. Even the instrumental tracks are enough to make you stop what you’re doing and listen.” – No Depression “Challenging what folk music is capable of, Talbot’s powerful, uplifting voice harnesses a country twang complemented by lush acoustic finger-picking and a violin that feels like it was birthed next to a babbling brook in the mountains” – SEATTLE WEEKLY “With enveloping lyrical stories and a voice that elicits the ghosts of folk’s storied past, Talbot cuts through the throngs of the Pacific Northwest’s folk-pop hopefuls and stands high above in class unto himself.” – SSG MUSIC
