First appearance at Bronte Club for Dolly Varden

THE Bronte Music Club will host American band Dolly Varden, as they make their first ever appearance at the Rathfriland venue on Sunday, February 10.

Touring throughout 2013 to promote their new album ‘For a While’, Dolly Varden has been making music for almost two decades but their latest release explores how quickly that time has passed.

The band is built around the heartfelt singing and songwriting of husband and wife Steve Dawson and Diane Christiansen, the melodic and soulful guitar and lap steel playing of Mark Balletto, and the solid rhythm section of Matt Thobe on drums and Mike Bradburn on bass.
