Wreckless Strangers is a collective of six friends and musicians carrying the torch for San Francisco’s grand rock ‘n’ roll tradition. Their unique stew of “Bay Area Gumbo” melds the contemporary blues stylings of Bonnie Raitt and Boz Scaggs; the songwriting sensibilities of Sons of Champlin and Fleetwood Mac; the swashbuckling Americana of the Lost Planet Airmen and Peter Rowan; and the funk of Sly Stone and Tower of Power with a dash of Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane for flavor and unpredictability. With soaring harmony vocals and burning instrumental improvisation framed in concise and poignant original songwriting Wreckless Strangers seek to honor and carry forth the brand of free-spirited musical fun and adventure that defines the Bay Area.
The band includes Amber Morris (vocals) David Noble (lead guitar vocals) Joshua Zucker (bass) Austin de Lone (keys vocals) Mick Hellman (drums vocals) and Rob Anderson (guitar). Collectively members of Wreckless Strangers have worked with Elvis Costello Miley Cyrus Peter Rowan Highway Wolf Bonnie Raitt Ismay Boz Scaggs Fabulous Thunderbirds Olivia Wolf Laurie Lewis and more!
