HogMaw is an American band from York, Pennsylvania, United States. The music of HogMaw has been described as a combination of bluegrass, folk, [1] funk, and heavy metal called "thundergrass". [2] [3]
HogMaw formed in 2008 when fiddler Ryann Lynch met guitarist Matt Baldwin and banjo and mandolin player Colin Reeves at a folk music festival in rural New Jersey. HogMaw has appeared as a featured group on Philadelphia-area public radio station WXPN's Folk Show. [4] [5] In June 2011, the band entered a band competition sponsored by the Philadelphia Folksong Society, which invited campground musicians from its annual music festival to compete for a chance to perform on stage. HogMaw was one of two bands who won, and later that August they opened on the main stage of the annual 50th Philadelphia Folk Festival, [6] [7] one of the largest in North America.
Hogmaw performed at the Bucks County Bluegrass Festival in 2011. [8] [9]
HogMaw is also featured in the independent film At Fest. The music and members of HogMaw are included in the 2013 trailer for the feature-length documentary. [10]
HogMaw released its first album, Wake, in July 2012. To raise money for the project, they used crowdfunding website Kickstarter [2] ultimately doubling their goal and raising $2,400 from supporters of the band. The album received a positive review at Tristate. [9] The group entered the studio in early 2013 and recorded a second album, Ideal Proof with producer Dom Flemons. [11]
In 2014, Hogmaw performed at the Little Buffalo Festival [12] and the Spring Pickin' Bluegrass Festival in Pennsylvania. [13] In 2015 they performed at the Camp Jam in the Pines Music Festival in New Jersey. [14]
