Rooted in folk, blues, country, Latin, rock ‘n’ roll, and psychedelia, intent on uncovering and sharing old hidden gems and forgotten treasures, the music of Indian Paintbrush embraces & continues to pass along the stories and styles of our mixed folk traditions, with a passion to celebrate and share them with all who listen– lest these songs slip through the veils of antiquity into obscurity. Like a vast western horizon, their sound captures and depicts a wide range of history, nature, and feeling; a lone, steady, undying wind singing through red rock mesas, whistling through mountain trees, billowing across grassy plains; silhouetted atop a cosmic pastel skyline, of Venus star, crescent Moon, and setting Sun; from a rumbling boxcar ramble, to the warm reprieve of an ember glowed campfire, to high times in a swinging old neon clad honky tonk; fervour like crying coyotes over a fresh kill, warning like the shake of a rattlesnake’s tail, endless possibilities of an open highway; drawing upon timeless existential human themes, as old & relatable as love & betrayal, lust & romance, triumph & self-doubt, freedom, redemption and realization. These are the feelings and images conjured by the music and sounds of Indian Paintbrush.
