Category of Folk: Stringband, Singer-songwriter, Old Time

Location: Boston, MA

Description of Music:

We are a 5-piece stringband from Boston MA. We formed in 2015 and released our debut EP shortly thereafter, showcasing roots in country, old time, and bluegrass music. In 2018 we released our first full-length album, Stardust Lodge, and have spent 2018/2019 touring in support of the record in the Northeast, Southeast, and Southwest US. This year we performed for the first time at a number of music festivals in the northeast, and have seen success on-air with the album reaching nationally-ranking status on Folk and Americana music charts. We are releasing a single in January in anticipation of our 2nd full-length in Spring 2020.

“While there’s enough here to be lumped into the bluegrass circuit, Grain Thief’s sound is much more of an amalgamation of influences, including pulling freely from various corners of country music. Certainly not afraid to throw off any genre shackles.” - The Hartford Courant

This will be our first time performing at FAI, and we would love the opportunity to play your private showcase! Give us a shout through our website, email, or phone if you'd like to get in contact.

Booking Goals:

We hope to expand our touring range across North America and Europe in 2020/2021. Target show types include festivals, venues, house concerts, listening rooms, concert series, and support slots.

We also look forward to creating lasting relationships with fellow artists in the folk music community, and hope to make professional relationships with agents, labels, and artist managers.
