Wyld Iris + Laura T. Lewis

* Sunday, June 25, 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Smiley’s Saloon presents Wyld Iris + Laura T. Lewis

Come on down and hang out with us in Bolinas for a magical afternoon of friends, family, and music. Come sway with the waves to the sounds of this all-female folk group and their lilting harmonies.

Wyld Iris is a folk music group based in the North Bay. Hallie, Michaela, and Winona came together thanks to a Yuba River campfire, and a log cabin jam. Their style is a reflection of their shared love of American Roots music.

Inspired by the likes of Ola Belle Reed, Townes Van Zandt, and Gillian Welch, this trio covers the greats and performs original songs with rich three part harmony and vibrant acoustic instrumentation.

Wyld Iris is:

• Winona Wagner – vocals, guitar
• Michaela Thomas – vocals, bass, guitar
• Hallie Richards – vocals, banjo, guitar
• Justine Lucas – fiddle, vocals

Although Laura T Lewis’ music has been described as “Indie Americana”, Appalachian and Greenwich Village Folk, Motown Soul, and Wild Western campfires have all been woven into the sentimental foundation of her original work.

Her songs are lyrically driven, and her performance is earnest (with a sense of humor).
