Justin Osborne has been performing as ‘Susto’ since 2013, when he formed a collective of fellow musicians and artists in coastal Charleston, South Carolina. Now he’s fused their alt-rock with the Appalachian sounds of the Holler Choir with this latest venture, by joining with Americana vocalist Clint Roberts, clawhammer banjoist Helena Rose, fiddler Madeline Dierauf, and upright bassist Joey Brown (now Holler Choir). Lightning struck as an immediate connection and artistic chemistry captured a new sound and visualization that unfolds on Susto Stringband’s debut release from New West Records, simply titled "Susto Stringband: Volume 1." They play 185 King Street in Brevard Thursday night, before album’s official release the next day.
