The Rita Hosking Trio @McCloud River Mountain Music

In a wavy world where we often struggle to swim, singer-songwriter Rita Hosking paddles up and canoes us through black holes, sinks of dirty dishes, demo-derbies, and wildfires until we’re safe at shore. She's got the spirit, and she knows how to reach ours through her grace, heart, chops, and spunk. With award-winning music spanning 9 albums and 20 years of touring, this country-folk troubadour is a heavy hitter in the Northern California songwriting scene.

Northern California’s Rita Hosking sings of forest fires, culture clash, dishes, rivers, black holes and hope.  Her stories, songs and soul-stirring, country-folk voice are partnered with longtime collaborator and versatile multi-instrumentalist, Sean Feder, on dobro, banjo and guitar and Bill Dakin on bass. Together, they deliver what Acoustic Magazine calls “timeless, unhurried elegance.”
