   About The Alpine Black
The Alpine Black mix haunting broken country blues, towering folk traditions and indie paced energy to create a mesmerizing tidal wave of sound. The music is a combination of acoustic instruments, voices, and lyrics that search through surreal and realistic visions of a disappearing American landscape. Forming in the fall of 2006, The Alpine Black continue to outline the folk tradition while pulling from numerous genres. Covers range from Johnny Cash, Nick Cave, Neko Case and more.

so you've magnetized my husband to your music as well; your cd is all we've been listening to in the car for the past week(i couldn't even lie about that)

Liam loves it too.. so now I guess you could consider us your number one fan-ily.

great show at the mansion!

Guys & Girl,

Great set at the mansion last night... wonderful music! I truly enjoyed sharing the bill with you there, and perhaps we can look into collaborating on some shows in the future. I think the folk scene needs to stick together to support the genre around here.

Kudos again for a great show!
