Join us at Dewey Hall for our Friday night Dewey Sessions concert series! The Moon Shells draw from the traditional music of Appalachia, Louisiana, West Africa and elsewhere to try to make something new.
ABOUT THE BAND:
The Moon Shells draw from the traditional music of Appalachia, Louisiana, West Africa and elsewhere to try to make something new. Whether performing as an acoustic stringband, a stripped-down trio, or a five-piece making modern sounds on traditional instruments at clubs and festivals, the Moon Shells move hearts and feet.
In 2019 they released two albums—Seaside Asylum, an album of original songs and tunes, and Screech Plank, an album of more traditional fiddle tunes. The Hartford Courant named Seaside Asylum one of its favorite regional albums of 2019. Their next album of original songs, House of Air, is coming out on Oct. 2, 2020.
