Description

Frog Holler brings their genre-defying alternative country-rock and Americana back to the spotlight, offering a night shaped by years of honest, marathon live shows and a fiercely independent spirit. Formed in Berks County and evolving from an acoustic bluegrass trio into a mostly electric sextet, the band has built a loyal following through emotional, lived-in performances and six full-length recordings plus an EP. Their mix of mountain blues, modern country, and wide-ranging influences creates an evening perfectly suited to the intimate setting of Godfrey Daniels. Join us for a show from a band that continues to thrive on its own terms.

Originally formed as a bluegrass trio, Frog Holler has evolved into a genre-defying, mostly electric sextet, releasing six full length recordings and an ep since 1996. They have built their reputation on marathon live shows, loose but honest, emotional investments that have paid off with an intensely loyal fan base that far outreaches its Berks County, Pennsylvania home. Pretty amazing considering the band has toured cautiously throughout it’s career, preferring the quality over quantity route in an effort to stay sane, intact and solvent. They remain independent serving as their own manager, booking their own shows and releasing their own records (ZoBird Records), sacrificing a wider appeal to remain in control enabling them to continue making music and functioning as a band in the truest sense of the word. Every Tuesday night Frog Holler convenes at a local Berks Co. musical enclave known as the Moonlight Forest to hang out, have a meal, and play some music. Holler drummer, Daniel Bower, lives at the house and with the help of Ben Longenecker built a pro tools studio in 2007, opening the door for Frog Holler to do something it had always wanted, make a recording in the comforts of its home surroundings. With Longenecker co-producing, the band spent most of 2008 fleshing out the songs upstairs in the rehearsal space and then walking down to the basement to put them to tape. The result is “Believe It Or Not”, ten brand new songs from Frog Holler available Spring 2009 on ZoBird Records.

The Lehigh Valley’s Original Live Music Listening Room Since 1976 – Where Every Ticket is a Backstage Pass!

Godfrey Daniels, a nonprofit live music venue known as a listening room located in the heart of Southside Bethlehem, PA, is renowned as one of the finest and the second-longest continuously operating listening rooms in the United States. It’s a cherished space where artists and audiences can come together to celebrate live, diverse music in a truly immersive and unforgettable setting that embodies the essence of music appreciation.

SO, WHAT IS A ‘MUSIC LISTENING ROOM’?

A music listening room is a dedicated space or venue designed to create an intimate and focused atmosphere for live music performances. It provides a setting where the primary focus is on the music and the experience of actively listening to it. Unlike traditional concert venues or bars, music listening rooms prioritize respectful attention from the audience, creating an environment where the music takes center stage and performers can connect with their listeners on a deeper level. The seating arrangement, acoustics, and overall ambiance of a music-listening room are carefully designed to enhance the listening experience, allowing for a more intimate and immersive encounter between the audience and the artists.
