Sweetwater Music Hall

<a href="https://wrecklessstrangers.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Wreckless Strangers</a>&nbsp;are thrilled to once again grace the iconic Sweetwater Music Hall&nbsp;in Mill Valley, CA, on Saturday, January 31,&nbsp;to celebrate the release of their forthcoming album, Dirty Souls. Alt-gypsy-rock troubadours Beso Negro will open the show, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening of music and fun. 
Wreckless Strangers&nbsp;return to their roots with their fourth studio album, Dirty Souls.&nbsp;The six-song collection is the Bay Area sextet’s most raw and visceral effort to date, a modern take on the arena rock of the ‘70s and ‘80s upon which the band members’ earliest musical seeds were sown.&nbsp;

The songwriting is among the most intimate and personal to date, exploring themes of relationships, loss, empowerment, and perseverance.&nbsp;

Co-lead singers Amber Morris and David Noble&nbsp;function as a single organism, bringing the songs to life with bluesy grit, soul, and humanity bolstered by rock-solid, road-hewn grooves.&nbsp;

Dirty Souls&nbsp;is the band’s third studio outing under the tutelage of Grammy-winning producer Dave Way, who fosters a level of depth and organic cohesion that firmly establishes Wreckless Strangers in San Francisco’s storied rock ‘n’ roll legacy.&nbsp; The first single, "Dirty Soul," is out on January 23 and available on all streaming platforms. The full album comes out in late March, but concert attendees will have the exclusive opportunity to purchase advance copies of the CD. Review copies are available now, upon request.

About Wreckless Strangers
Wreckless Strangers is a collective of friends and musicians carrying the torch for San Francisco’s grand rock ‘n’ roll tradition. Their unique blend of “Ameri-Cali Soul” melds the contemporary blues stylings of Bonnie Raitt and Boz Scaggs; the songwriting sensibilities of Sons of Champlin and Fleetwood Mac; the swashbuckling Americana of the Lost Planet Airmen and Peter Rowan; and the funk of Sly Stone and Tower of Power with a dash of Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane for flavor and unpredictability. With soaring vocal harmonies and burning instrumental improvisation framed in concise and poignant original songwriting, Wreckless Strangers seek to honor and carry forth the brand of free-spirited musical fun and adventure that defines the Bay Area.&nbsp;
The band features Amber Morris&nbsp;on lead vocals; David Noble on lead guitar, lead vocals; Joshua Zucker on bass, vocals; Mick Hellman&nbsp;on drums, vocals; Rob Anderson&nbsp;on guitar, vocals; and Fletcher Nielsen on keys. The band was recently invited to perform live on Nashville’s famed Americana Roots radio station, WMOT, and will perform at NAMM in Southern California in January.

About Beso Negro&nbsp;
Born of the Bay Area’s rich musical lineage, Beso Negro&nbsp;unites multigenerational ties to local music with a fearless fusion of Gypsy jazz, rock, country, and more. Each member brings distinct influences that intertwine into a sound both timeless and electrifying — where the mystery of gypsy swing meets the pulse of modern rock ’n’ roll.

Their high-voltage performances have lit up stages from Outside Lands and SXSW to Slim’s SF and The Great American Music Hall. With bilingual flair, virtuosic musicianship, and irresistibly danceable rhythms, Beso creates a spellbinding tapestry that honors tradition while blazing new musical trails.
