Celandine

About Me

Celandine began when three members of the regional band Trailhead reformed, with a new guitar sound. The band plays straight-up roots rock music, original tunes lamenting loves lost or earthscapes overly trodden on, but they enjoy pulling out a wide range of cover songs from some of their influencing artists. They like to get the crowd stomping, and then lull them back to a quiet, still place of introspection. And they like to have FUN when they play. Their debut record, Coming Home To Me, was recorded in a four-day intensive lock-down at The Studio, with Lou Whitney. In their short career, they have shared stages with Noam Chomsky, a mechanical bull and everyone in between.
