The High & Wides and Wicked Sycamore

Formed on Maryland’s Eastern Shore in 2015 and currently with roots both in Baltimore and the rural Delmarva peninsula, they draw on bluegrass backgrounds and weave in influences from new wave to old time to make music that defies boundaries while evoking the era when country, bluegrass, western swing, and early rock’n’roll mingled freely.

They’re joined by Wicked Sycamore, an all-female trio hailing from the Baltimore/DC area. Their sound can be described as contemporary folk with a mischievous edge that is grounded in traditional roots, Americana, and bluegrass.
