Strawberry Flats
Strawberry Flats was formed in 2021 by Hannah and Tony Giardino over coffee and a shared love of roots music. With roots in the Mississippi Delta and the heartland, their sound blends classic country and bluegrass (and a little bit of punk, too). They began as a duo and evolved into a full-band after meeting their mandolin player Kyle Smith, banjo player Noah Griffin, and bass player Lenny Nichols at the CTBA Sunday jams. Find their original music on Spotify, Apple Music, and all streaming platforms.
