Them “Dirt Rakers” are hosting their 5th  “Americana Night” at Felton Music Hall , Saturday January 25th from 7:30 – 10:30 MICHAEL GAITHER and His New Best Friends Award-winning Americana songwriter Michael Gaither takes the “write what you know” idea to heart. A Santa Cruz native, he brings tunes that showcase both the nostalgia of small-town life and the foibles of modern technology, always with plenty of humor in the mix. (In a previous life, he had a narrow brush with standup comedy.) As always, Michael is joined by His New Best Friends ensemble, which features ill Walker on lead guitar, Eliza James on harmony vocals, and Greg Abelar on bass. They'll do a mix of Michael's originals along with tasty covers from artists who've influenced them.

While the band is steeped in the traditional style, they've cultivated their own distinct bluegrass sound. The balance between their love for classic bluegrass and keenness for exploring fresh musical ideas defines their style and approach, and makes them a fan-favorite for music lovers of all types. Three-part harmony, lonesome duets, banjo breakdowns, honky-tonk sorrow, blues mandolin, and original material all combine to create their vision for bluegrass music and its future. They’ve won numerous awards, performed at festivals, venues, and bars across the west coast, and released four albums.
