The LA River String Band blends folk and bluegrass with a modern twist, delivering their signature sound across the greater Los Angeles area. Inspired by timeless artists like Bob Dylan, Norman Blake, and Doc Watson, the band also reimagines songs from contemporary acts such as The White Stripes, Radiohead, and even Britney Spears. Featuring Charlie Landsman (guitar/vocals), Rob Wiltsey (mandolin), and John Hewitt (bass), the trio delivers a fresh take on acoustic tradition with tight-knit instrumentation and a rich, roots-driven sound.
