Rural Swing band The Turpentiners share the bill with honky tonk favorites Howling Mob for a night of great music and dancing in the Loft.

The Turpentiners are a good time rural swing band homegrown right here in Pittsburgh. Having played together in some capacity for over 15 years, they have performed at numerous venues within the Tri-State Area, including Fallingwater, the Johnstown Folk and Flood Festival, Sweetwater Center for the Arts, Carnegie Music Hall, Hartwood Acres Stage, Touchstone Center for Crafts, Tree Pittsburgh’s Arbor Aid, and numerous shows for the City of Pittsburgh.

Members include:
Ben Hartlage on guitar and vocals,
Stu Braun on harmonica
Megan Williams on violin, mandolin, and vocals
Adam Frew on upright bass
Ron Mesing on dobro.

Howling Mob is a five-piece honky tonk band also based in Pittsburgh. The group is named after the Great Railroad Strike of 1877, where angry protesters pushed over trains and set them on fire to push back against cut wages. Harper’s Weekly described the strikers as a “howling mob.” The group plays a mix of original music and covers ranging from Hank Williams and Patsy Cline to Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson.

Tickets are just $18 in advance ($20 at the door)
Check-in will begin 1 hr before show
