Quest, Cole -and The City Pickers-
Homegrown
Though they may be led by Woody Guthrie's incredible grandson on vocals and guitars, NYC's Cole Quest & the City Pickers are a true ensemble collaboration, sporting buoyant harmonies and virtuoso harmonica, Dobro, mandolin, and banjo playing. The band has shared bills with Billy Strings, Sierra Hull, Sarah Jaroz, Della Mae, Tony Trischka, Michael Daves, earned spotlights from The Bluegrass Situation, Bluegrass Today, Folk Alley, WFUV, American Songwriter, and spent five weeks atop the Roots Music Report Traditional Bluegrass Song Chart. Their first album in four years, Homegrown features three Woody Guthrie songs (including Woody's iconic "Pastures of Plenty"), a Woody Guthrie/Arlo Guthrie cowrite, and songs by Peter Rowan and John Hartford. RIYL: O Brother, Where Art Thou? OST, Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger.
