Cricket Tell the Weather
Cricket Tell the Weather is a five piece string band brought together through a shared love for American traditional music and passion to push the music forward. Full of energy and exploration, their award-winning songwriting finds expression in a seamless blend of traditional mountain music, indie pop sensibilities, and a chamber ensemble approach. Hauntingly melodic and exuberant, Cricket’s songwriting explores themes of loss and loneliness, triumph and connection, painted with imagery of the American landscape—from the high mountains of the Rockies to the old mill towns of New England.
“The future of folk music — urban or otherwise — is in good hands.” – Rachel Cholst, No Depression
“…the band turns back the clock, tracing the musical lineage of their more contemporary songwriting and instrumental command, and a refreshing lack of pretense.” -Asher Wolf, That Music Magazine
“A diverse collection of original compositions, well-chosen covers, and updated traditional songs that challenges preconceived notions of old-time music and delivers one of the strongest Americana offerings of 2016.” – Jud Conway,Kind Web”
