Noggin Hill: Old-time Bluegrass
In the southern Appalacian mountians, fiddle and banjo players have been reveling in the complimentary textural relationship of the two instruments for hundreds of years. The rhythmic momentum, undeniable warmth & endless potential of this down-home duet is celebrated in it’s full spirit by Brendan Cooney and Nikolai Fox. After years of perfoming together in Philadelphia’s longest running 6 piece Americana band, Cooney and Fox established Noggin Hill in collaboration with the visceral, adept and fluent bassist, Chris Coyle. Noggin Hill celebrates the grit of sincereity in every phrase. This undeniably danceble and fantastically listenable trio are up to thier funny hats in a traditional sound that has been aged to perfection.
