“Hurt & Skip” are the red dirt boogie brother’s Tribal Blues bangin’ trio featuring Shane Pruitt on dobro and traditional hill country acoustic style guitar, Jason Phillips on percussion employing native polyrhythms and driving kick drum, and Joe Power on the microphone. The band is named after Mississippi John Hurt and Skip James as a show of respect for the innovators who gave us the blueprint for modern American music. Hurt & Skip bends the blues in a way that transcends genre and forces inquiry into what music is and what it can be.”
