The Talking Hearts, Wild Leek River
THE TALKING HEARTS are a cutting edge honky tonk band from Boston. Channeling the spirit of country music icons Loretta Lynn, Hank Williams, Buck Owens, and George Jones, The Talking Hearts play witty and relatable original songs written by fiddler Rachel Rosenberg about folks who’ve done her wrong. The songs feature the thick three-part harmony singing of Rachel, Sophie Wellington (guitar) and Zach Meyer (mandolin), with bassist Dan Bui and drummer Mike Harmon laying down a solid rhythmic groove while pedal steel player Alex Formento adds that sweet lonesome texture. The Talking Hearts released their debut album, Over Your Spell, in fall 2023, featuring ten of their instant country classics. Pull up your cowboy boots and get ready for a rollicking good time!

WILD LEEK RIVER - Hailing from Northern Vermont, Wild Leek River is a regular 5-piece country band. The songs they play vibrate with sounds of new and old, steady back-beats and good stories. Their style and performances trace its roots from the honky tonks of days gone by, with rowdy shows across Vermont and throughout the Northeast. In the release of their self-titled debut LP in 2021, they cultivated and honed in on the sound first sketched out in their 2019 release, “The Bacon EP.” The band also took to recording songs by local Vermont artists and other friends made along the way. On the LP, they perform versions of “Molly Bootlegger” by Jeremy Sicily of Beg, Steal or Borrow and “Good Intentions” by local VT legend Johnny Davis. Rumor has it that the band will also be heading back into the studio in 2025 to cut another full-length LP. Stay tuned, y’all.
