Broke Boland’s String Show is musician Matt Boland’s original music consisting of cello and mandolin alongside his “one-man band” approach to guitar and percussion. A songwriter, producer, singer, guitarist, and standup bass player, Boland’s been bringing his high-energy Punk, Folk and Rockabilly-infused live shows to audiences for the last 20 years. Boland says: “Paul Sontheimer on the cello and Jack Hanrahan on the mandolin make a unique sound that caters to all the different styles we play. We do anything from upbeat Americana to haunting folk music.” Boland drives the beat with his percussive guitar playing and pounding kick drum, while the cello growls and the mandolin glitters. Coupled with Boland’s evocative and heartfelt lyrics, the result is a completely original, hard-to-define sound and a high-octane theatrical presentation that can only be truly felt live!
