Lindsay Lou & the Flatbellys
Hailing from all corners of the Great Lakes State of Michigan, Lindsay Lou & the Flatbellys are giving a nod to American traditional music, while boldy taking their own songs in new directions. Distinct vocals, tight harmonies, instrumental expertise and creative arrangements are all essential characteristics of their unique sound. The group focuses on the original tunes of Lindsay Lou Rilko, which include true-life tales of bank-robbing aunties, moonshinin’ grandpas, and celebrations of love, life and nature. Don’t be surprised to hear bluegrass standards, Beatles hits and contemporary classics at a Flatbellys show as well. It’s an infectious vibe that could only have been born in the heart of America’s Fresh Coast!
