The Obsoleets are an American roots string band and show orchestra. This five piece band performed regionally at venues from New York City to Wilmington, Delaware. Most recently they opened for Chris Thomas King of 'Oh, Brother Where Art Thou' fame at the Kennett Flash in Kennett Square, PA. The core of the band, John Stovicek (guitar, banjo, mandolin), Parris Bradley (tenor guitar, ukulele, tiple, can-jo) and Steven Patrick Smith (percussion), is made up of theatre veterans who have collaborated on many performance projects including soundscape performances, original musicals, sound design for theatre productions (Arden Theatre Company, Villanova University, Amaryllis Theatre Company), Fringe Festivals (Philadelphia, New York) and national acting/directing theatre credits. Rounding out this dynamic five piece band is jazz artist Alan Lewine on upright bass and Qin Qian on erhu ('Chinese violin') who each have strong followings and national performance credits. Together they are clearing out the cobwebs on some choice old American Roots and Blues chestnuts, cooking up the blues classics and serving them greasy.
