San Francisco band Dirty Cello: blues, bluegrass and rock

San Francisco band Dirty Cello: blues, bluegrass and rock

Presented by Willits Community Theatre at Willits Community Theatre

Led by vivacious cross-over cellist, Rebecca Roudman, Dirty Cello is cello like you’ve never heard before. From down home blues on a wailing cello to virtuosic stompin’ bluegrass, the band gets the heart thumping and the toes tapping. Besides Roudman on cello, fiddle and vocals, the band includes Jason Eckl on guitar, bassist Colin Williams and drummer Cory Aboud.

From Italy to China, and all over the United States, Dirty Cello has been wowing audiences with their funky, carnival, romantic, sexy, fiercely rhythmic and textured sounds. The band moves seamlessly between blues to bluegrass and rock in a way that shouldn’t make sense, but somehow does. They play some fantastic covers and their rendition of “Purple Haze” has been termed “incredible.” Music journalist Nick Diamantides says, “When lead guitar is replaced by the sound of hot licks on a cello, blues, rock and bluegrass rise to a new dimension. Dirty makes its style of string music to inspire audiences to swing, sway and dance.”
