Harmonic Dirt is a songwriting collaboration of multi-instrumentalist Mike Gridley and lyricist and bassist Susan Coleman, joined by Taylor Bucci on banjo and vocals and James DaRin on percussion.
The husband and wife duo of Coleman and Gridley are prolific songwriters, developing stories that draw from the rich heritage of American folk and roots music, but also weaving themes from literature, historical events, and personal observations into the mix.
Their four albums include their debut “Anthracite” , "Live at the Ridge" (winner of a 2021 Syracuse Area Music Award), and their second studio release "Rhode Island Street", and their most recent EP release "Blame the Horizon". Their original songs showcase the breadth of their musical and lyrical influences, while providing familiar reference points to sixties folk-rock, Harvest-era Neil Young, as well as alt-country in the vein of the Jayhawks.
They are based in Syracuse, New York. Tour dates here: bnds.us/9sjr98
