Traveling Light's roots are deep in bluegrass, but Sumner's lyric-forward songs & snaking progressions demand something beyond folk conventions, highlighting the range of bandmates Kat Wallace (fiddle/tenor guitar/harms) & Mike Siegel (upright bass).
Whether they’re ripping through a set of original jigs and reels, adding lush harmonies into traditional folk ballads, or cracking up an audience with stories from the road, House of Hamill puts on a show that captivates audiences.
