Members of the local band Rogue Lobster are lovely, talented people, who produce a gorgeous, vibrant, romantic sound. They performed at Walla Walla's 2015 Gentlemen of the Road stopover, headlined by Mumford & Sons. Bandmates Adam Kirtley, Libby Arnosti, Libby Miller, Michael Simon, Brian Griffith, JR Van Slyke and Jerry Yokel have been performing together since 2013, providing masterfully written Americana, Folk and Bluegrass and rich, three-part harmonies, to an ever-growing fan base. If you're looking to book some terrific live music for your event at the barn, reach out to them, and also treat yourself to a copy of their recently released CD, Dust On Our Toes.
"May the years be a gentle breeze Calmly igniting your passions And may it blow you to me In a most peculiar fashion // Cause I don’t know Where I would go But for the breeze that blows You to me and me to you // May your life be a roaring stream Crashing and carving new courses And may it flow you to me By all mysterious forces // Cause I don’t know Where I would go But for the stream that flows You to me and me to you // May this love be a fertile field Richer with each passing season And may it grow you to me For no particular reason // Cause I don’t know Where I would go But for the field that grows You to me and me to you"
