Sat Aug 15thDoors 6:30 | Show 7:30$10 ADV | $15 DOS Woodland Creatures is a six-piece Americana band based in Pittsburgh, Pa that believes everything is better with three-part harmony. Their original songs are carefully arranged to showcase the beauty and power of their harmonizing vocalists, and the virtuosic talent of their fiddle and lead guitarist. While their songs are influenced by a variety of musical genres, they are all tied together with rootsy vocals and unique instrumentation. The Wreckids are a local husband-and-wife duo of Scott Peterson (guitar and vocals) and Sarah Siplak (viola and vocals) has long provided a charming live show, previously as Scotts Roger and now as The Wreckids. (You may also remember Siplak from Boxstep earlier in the decade.) How their live charisma would translate to a recording was the question in play upon the release of The Wreckids debut EP, Singing You to Sleep But Giving You Nightmares.Recorded by Donoras Jake Hanner, the debut EP mixes acerbic commentary, dulcet harmonies and plain hyperbolic silliness in appealing proportions. Playful, irreverent, sometimes even goofy, The Wreckids avoid reducing themselves to a novelty act through pure chops in terms of both songwriting and musicianship.
