Americana the Beautiful: McGanns 3/11/10

Americana. It’s all about America, the free loving dream, and maybe a slice of apple pie with an Oscar Meyer hot dog on the side. At McGanns Pub on Friday, though there were no slices of apple pie and no hot dogs, there certainly was a hefty helping of Americana that would leave anyone more full than a pack of Oscar Meyer’s and a home baked apple pie.

Hat On Drinking Wine

The first band I saw was an outfit from Worcester called Hat on Drinking wine. Hat On’s songs grooved along with a laid back feel and some serious variety. Members of the band jumped from guitar to banjo

and then Irish whistle, which roundeound and kept the audience guessing which style they were going to delve into next. In addition most of there songs featured an accordion which added a solid touch to their roots/ Americana style.

Taking the stage next was a Boston based group known as the Autumn Hollow Band. These fellas ripped a set of energized folk rock and sported some legitimate folk and Americana chops. Scott Marucci was was plucking out the down low sounds on an upright bass and lead guitar player Mike Burke threw in some honed lead guitar work. The drum work, banged out by Todd Sampson was on point and Brendan Murphy covered rhythm guitar and lead vocals. Jumping from themes of love, redemption, and American culture the band packed enough punch live to make me excited about checking out there album, Love Letters and Ransom Notes.

After Autumn Hollow rocked the stage, Webb & The Wisenheimers took the audience into a land of rootsie laid back folk. These Wisenheimers mixed it up with a few covers and some ear soothing originals. Webb Sanquist, covered lead vocals and rhythm guitar , crooning sweet country melodies like a seasoned pro on the Grand Ole Opry. In addition to his vocals the musicianship of these boys was impressive and produced a thick, sweet southern auora that entranced all of McGanns.

Comanchero

Lastly the audience was rocked by closer and headliners Comanchero. Now, if you haven't heard of Comanchero, well, first of all you should go look them up, second of all lets just say they are heavy hitters on the Boston music scene. The band mixes rock, funk, country, and well...... the list goes on and on. These guys are just originals through and through. Catching them live is a real treat and I would recommend that anyone who considers themselves a fan of Americana check out there most recent album Americana Nueva.

As always F Nice picked out a line up that delivered and let me tell you this Americana the Beautiful could have melted the stoniest of faces if there were playing an out door concert in the North Pole.
