The Fretbenders

New England Americana band, the Fretbenders, have a sound based in blues, roots music, with a dash of folk, country and rock for good measure. Featuring Diane Kordas, lead vocals, guitar and songwriter for the band; Robert Kordas vocals, dobro, and banjo, Zac Francis Arnault, vocals and bass; Paul Wolf percussion. Heavily influenced by artists such as Gillian Welch, Bonnie Raitt, John Prine, Alison Krauss and Jerry Douglas among others, the Fretbender's music "is a bit of down -home barbeque meets speakeasy - served up with humor and fantastic musicianship."
