Hellman Spring Stomp

Hellman Spring Stomp at Sweetwater Music Hall
* Sunday, March 19, 6:30 pm show

Expect plenty of picking-and-grinning when music-loving friends and family join forces for the Hellman Spring Stomp at Sweetwater Music Hall on Sunday, March 19.

The evening of American roots music will feature the Go To Hell Man Band features the children, grandchildren, friends and band mates of the late, great Warren Hellman, founder of the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass festival.

The band was formed so that his family could carry forward their own expression of roots and Americana music, which Warren so loved and worked so hard to bring to larger audiences.

There are now 5 separate Hellman combos, most of whom will be performing at this semi-annual Hellman Stomp. This promises to be a fine and fun evening of music and surprises, including special guests, The Quitters.

So why not Spring Into Spring with the Go To Hellman Band!!

Opening band The Quitters trio consists of a right-side up finger picker (Stevie Coyle), an upside-down flat picker (Glenn “Houston” Pomianek), and an upright bassist (Chris Kee). They were the three original members of The Waybacks quintet, and Chris Kee and Glenn Houston were the long-time bassist and lead guitarist for Houston Jones.
