What began as collaboration between chanteuse/guitarist/keyboardist, Janelle Mailhot; and bare-chested lead guitarist, Trevor Graumann, transformed in 2008 with the addition of bass/banjo/violin player, Aaron Zeghers; and drumming vocalist, Matthew Powers. SitDownTracy is an eclectic mosaic of styles and talents – everyone brings something different to the party. The band straddles folk, Death Country and indie-rock with such agility but the bare bones will always be rock. It’s the kind of music that catches up your feet in a sort of jig or an on the spot gallop. The band’s home-base is a nest of video games from all decades, relic consoles and board games. Instruments are strewn amid the countless chairs and comfy couches - even a foose-ball table sits in the middle of a room. The fire is always roaring, even in the warmer months. The whole place has a pj pants kind of vibe. One can easily drop in and join in on whatever game is being played or jam session jammed. Since entering the studio to record “Roaring noon.” in early 2009, the group continues to grow and develop, recently adding Sean Perkins to the line-up to play percussion, sax, and accordion.
