The Familiar Strangers play an Americana grab bag of roots music from western swing to classic country, blues, rock, swing jazz and even a little bit of gypsy jazz! Imagine Bob Wills and John Hiatt get in a car with Chuck Berry and they pick up a hitch hiking Dolly Parton! It’s kinda like that!
This band generates a big response from audiences with their friendly banter and responsiveness to requests from audience members. This is a band with a sense of humor that can easily move between material designed to get you up on your feet dancing or tugging at your heart to buy another drink and lose your sorrows.
The band is comprised of top shelf veterans of the bay area music scene. Drawing from such well known bands/performers as Comander Cody, Maria Muldaur, Laughing Gravy, San Geronimo, The Rhythm Rangers, Clint Black, Shirley Bassey & more.
Since their inception in a few short years ago they have developed a loyal following that crops up at the clubs, festivals, special events and parties the band regularly appears at.
