The Guthries are an American Roots Duo that create music peppered with influences such as rock, folk, country, and blues. They are multi-instrumental, playing acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass, mandolin, banjo, and light percussion. Expect the unexpected from these folks. They might easily swing from a latin rock beat right into a bluegrass ditty and then follow it up with some blues. There is never a dull moment with these two behind the microphones!
