"Their musicianship is superb as each band member takes his ride in exact tempo and phrasing with each other... which was always at breakneck speed and with clean, precise fingering."

Our string band from West Virginia...

Xander Hitzig, Justin Morris, Orion Hitzig and Matt Del Olmo are BrownChicken BrownCow StringBand

BrownChicken BrownCow StringBand began performing in the Spring of 2008 in West Virginia. BrownChicken gelled as a group fast, effortlessly. During late evening jams at various back porches and campfires the band was born. The boys spent a lot of time together, really listening to each other, the results of which quickly began to show up in the music. In the Fall of 2008 BrownChicken BrownCow StringBand moved to Maui, Hawaii and released our first album: "Fruit Goggles". When they first arrived in Maui they began performing on the streets of Paia.

Their early momentum landed us the opening spot for the Bill Kreutzmann New Years Eve show 2009 at the Pauwela Cannery Maui, HI. three-walk-away-NVWhile touring Maui the band wrote their second album: "Gallop on You". This album includes some of the first tour's favorite works: Gypsy Jig, Bees Making Honey, Put you in the Ground, and many more. Since then BrownChicken toured the United States coast to coast non-stop for the past 22 months. The Band will be two years old this August 2010 and is releasing their third Album : "...It's a Deep Sbject" in West Virginia on July 2, 2010 at the Wild Bean in Lewisburg. BrownChicken BrownChow StringBand makes it back to to their home state once a year to visit and perform. Look for them on the West Coast this Fall and Hawaii During the Winter 2011. -BCBCSB
