Hartwell Hospice House Band


The Hartwell Hospice House Band knows how to throw a party – with smart, funny originals, eclectic covers and just the right amount of high-energy improv. A 9-piece powerhouse at their full strength, this abstract Americana group has spent years hosting DIY shows in their home city of Buffalo and acting as the “House Band” at down-home backyard hootenannies. Their dense roots rock sound is a sonic pick-me-up packed with surprises, from auxiliary percussion and hearty saxophone flourishes to vintage synths and buzzy kazoo. It’s an inviting, organized chaos where no two of their rough and
tumble performances are the same. Committed to pushing creative boundaries and keeping old-school showmanship alive, The Hartwell Hospice House Band vitalizes audiences with an infectious communal energy while making sure you have a blast along the way.
