Delivering a refreshing reinvention of sounds once forgotten through their own brand of grassroots, Mama Said String Band has been making an impact on the Bluegrass Scene & beyond since their debut in 2016. Based out of Louisville Kentucky, Mama Said String Band is a four-piece collection of songwriters & players, David O’Neal, Katie “Didit” Caudill, Kaitlen Farmer, and Kris Potts. Each member brings a unique perspective with backgrounds spanning multiple cultures, genres, and styles. Together they draw influences from Bluegrass, Folk and Americana while focusing on vocal harmonies and contemporary instrumentation to build an eclectic, eurythmic melody and tactfully delivered message.
“It’s rare these days to find a syndicate so musically bizarre yet dreamy and whimsical. All four members of MSSB are ingenious freaks and prodigies in their own right. Every alluring lyric and thought-filled melody came straight from inventiveness within the group. From the first note to the final reprise that bookends this project, their cinematic sounds seem to make time stand still. Ready to ride? Listen to this album from start to finish. Thank me later!”
