Ravinwolf
"Loosely-tight...seamless...ethereal...haunting...intoxicating live performers...with superb instrumentation...Ravinwolf makes distinctively clear the difference between guitar playing and guitar artistry."
- Seattle PI
Ravinwolf is a refreshing original folk-blues combo from Central Washington State celebrating the shotgun wedding of Northwest Folk to Back Porch Blues. Their musical showcase pairs jazzy latin rhythms to poetic lyric with an acoustic folk-blues bottom line...rhyme & rythm... soulful guitars ... seamless and powerful vocal harmonies.
"... energetic and intoxicating live performers..."
- Yakima Herald
True American recording artists, performing singer songwriters and dedicated to the blues, 'Ravinwolf' has released 2 full-length studio CD's and are currently working on a live all acoustic album entitled "Acoustic Champagne" to be released in 2009.
Their creative approach to the acoustic folk-blues is what they like to call "Acoustic Art"... a fusion of back-porch jazzy blues. They have been described as "organic, raw and free..." by many of their audiences. Their tour schedule is robust with appearances scheduled this season at Wenatchee's Apple Blossom Festival, Yakima Valley Folkilfe Festival, Caffe Mela Summer Concert Series and some of the Northwest's finest brews and blues venues, winery Summer Concert venues and premiere music festivals. They are pleased to offering their support to national talent such as Carrie Clark, Seattle's own 'Flowmotion' and to the Washington Blues Society 2008 Award Winner Alice Stuart and the Formerlys.
"We are accustomed to presenting our music with the intimate musicality of showcase concert performers..."
- Ravinwolf
Most recently, Ravinwolf has been featured on the film soundtrack to Leaning Wolf Productions' 2009 documentary release "Back to the Garden" featuring Willie Nelson, Neil Young and Dave Matthews. For the film, they debuted three new songs . . . 'Family Farm', 'This Old Burg' and the title track ''Back to the Garden'. "In an effort to educate the public as to the importance of organic, subsistence farming practices, in support of the family farmers of American and in light of the plight to reduce poor treatment of factory farm animals, we are appearing at many of Washington States Farmer's Markets this season."
Ravinwolf actively supports the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) and Farm Aid through their album sales, donated time and labor. Feel free to make a donation to these organizations through their website store or at any live performance.
