The Familiar Strangers wi Sean Allen at Murphy's Irish Pub

The Familiar Strangers play an Americana grab bag of music from swing to country, bluegrass, folk, blues and even a little bit of gypsy jazz! This group is perfect for smaller venues but they nevertheless generate a big response from audiences with their friendly banter and responsiveness to requests from audience members. This is a band with a sense of humor that can easily move between material designed to get you up on your feet dancing or tugging at your heart to pour another glass of wine and lose your sorrows. The band recently celebrated their first recorded project, Masqurade 2020, which is already garnering critical success.
