"Loretta Lynch plays the sort of California country-lover's country that has no past, as if it rolled in on a wave one day and set up shop. Buttery vocal harmonies and wary rhythms convey timeless tales about heartbreak, coming home, and growing old that still manage to sound utterly modern." - Nate Seltenrich, East Bay Express

LATEST NEWS
Sunday August 10, 3:00 in the AFTERNOON
the Ivy Room, Albany
corner of San Pablo & Solano Avenues

I love these afternoon shows - you feel like you're out all night clubbing like ya used 'ta, but then you emerge back into the daylight,

blinking and ready for dinner...

ABOUT US 

We say we're "Americana Noir":
little tear in your beer, a little knife
in the back, a twist of rusty barbed wire wrapped around an
earnest heart...
~~~~~ 

Lush three-part harmonies and raucous

surf-tinged guitar burnish Country-Folk-Blues originals and

y'all-ternative

takes on 80's punk and

classic Standards. 

We dredge up the dark heart of Americana and gently set it afire.

 

 

 

OLD STUFF

Photos, flyers from venues that no longer exist, the infamous Setlist Spreadsheet, the weird stuff we say in rehearsals...

 

it's LorettaLand!
