Episode 92 - Little Red Wolf

Little Red Wolf is a 4 piece that formed in 2008 and has played numerous venues in Madison.

Combining elements of rock, bluegrass, alt-country, and the 
harmony-heavy vocals of swing-era ensembles, Little Red Wolf offers 
something entirely new and unique without forgetting their roots. 
Their music has been described as “distinctive and melodic,” and 
“really ambitious, especially in the vocal department, and they pull 
it off beautifully.”
