Chloe & the Steel Strings

Join Chloe & Connor as they open up for an out of town friend, Kevin Presbrey (Aurora, IL). Music 7:00-9:30pm / All Ages / No Cover Rootsy folk rock is one way of describing the vibration Kevin Presbrey is casting out there these days, but you could also very well say that his songs have a way of giving you that cozy feeling of being snuggled up by the fireplace in your favorite hooded sweatshirt. He's warm and familiar to you. Embracing the influences of storytellers Jim Croce, Don McLean, and Van Morrison along with modern troubadours Eric Church and Hiss Golden Messenger, Presbrey's midwestern sound and personality is the vehicle for the stories he lives and shares. “Chloe & the Steel Strings’ debut album ‘Burn Bright’ has a sound reminiscent of early Poco, Fairport Convention & the Grateful Dead: just trippy enough to be trippy, without being too psychedelic. It’s like Judy Collins, Joan Baez or Joni Mitchell had a baby with the Flying Burrito Brothers.” - Fred LeFebvre, (92.9 WSPD, iHeartRadio) Chloe & the Steel Strings is a 6-piece Cosmic Americana band from Toledo, Ohio, creating a new generation of psychedelic folk rock for artists and dreamers everywhere.
