Bare Bones Biography
Bare Bones, a Denver based Alt-Country/Americana/ Folk outfit, took shape within the barren exhibition halls in the after-hours of a local art museum. Comprised of little more than a guitar, violin and an unspoken, musical connection, Blake Brown and Frieda Stalheim first laid bare the bones of heartbreak. Following years of crafting delicate, honest songs and performing solo, singer/songwriter Blake Brown approached friend, co-worker and violinist Frieda Stalheim, formerly of Munly and the Lee Lewis Harlots, for accompaniment. After Brown and Stalheim worked through ideas, they decided to add additional instrumentation to the project and shortly thereafter recruited good friends and local heavyweights, bassist James Yardley of Snake Rattle Rattle Snake and Drummer Ben Desoto of Nathaniel Rateliff and the Wheel, to round out the group. All said, Bare Bones' music creates a rare tension and foreboding. Moody and starkly beautiful, the union of southern-inspired guitar lines and gothic/Americana counterpoints reaches inward to reveal something more solemn and true. Aiming their sights, Bare Bones will debut a full-length recording in the first half of 2011 and is slated to perform on both a local and national level. Some of their accomplishments thus far include performances with: Horse Feathers Smith Westerns Belle Brigade Denver Music Showcase at South by Southwest (SXSW)
