.357 String band was Derek Dunn (guitar and vocals), Joseph Huber (banjo, fiddle and vocals), Rick Ness (upright bass) and Jayke Orvis (multi-instrumentalist including mandolin). Jayke left the band in 2009 and they continued on for a few years until Joseph Huber also decided to call it a day. They have all gone on to record more music and explore other directions.
I had forgotten about what a fun show this was. All red hot pickers and most of the songs are barn burners. They soldiered through a bunch of technical difficulties on this night back in 2007 at the, gone but not forgotten, Benders Tavern in Denver Colorado. I managed to edit out most of the dead air as it were. It was a real momentum killer at two different spots in the set that night.
Seek out their music if you dig this and check out what all the members are up to as well.
As always please support independent music and art any way you can. Enjoy.
