Stillhouse Junkies

Thursday, March 14th, 2024 7pm Doors / 8pm Show $12 Stillhouse Junkies A crowd-thrilling trio from the hills of Colorado, Stillhouse Junkies share the kind of strangely charmed chemistrythat elevates both artist and audience alike. Since forming in 2017, the Durango-bred band has offered up ahypnotic and high-energy form of roots music anchored in the free-flowing interplay among the three lifelongmusicians (Fred Kosak on guitar and mandolin, Cody Tinnin on upright bass, Alissa Wolf on fiddle). While they’vegained major traction in the bluegrass world in recent years—including winning the IBMA Momentum Band ofthe Year award in 2021—Stillhouse Junkies ultimately inhabit a genre-blurring and subtly inventive soundinformed by everything from blues to classical to Texas swing. When matched with their nuanced songcraft andsoul-stirring harmonies, the result is a one-of-a-kind musical experience that immediately transports the listenerinto a more enchanted state of mind.With their fourth album due out in 2024, Stillhouse Junkies have now achieved such triumphs as touring in theUK and Europe and taking the stage at leading festivals like MerleFest and Grey Fox. Whether they’reperforming at house concerts or playing to crowds of thousands, the band balances the dizzying intricacy oftheir musicality with plenty of freewheeling improvisation. “We make sure to leave a lot of wide-open spaces forgroup improv at our shows,” says Tinnin. “We’re not that interested in playing it safe; the goal is always toconnect and play off each other as best we can.”
