Bio
The Gritty Git Down is a Milwaukee based acoustic/electric blues rock, stomp your feet and sing along experience. In the tradition of Mississippi John Hurt and Big Bill Broonzy.
Lead by Nick on Guitar/vocals, Brian on Guitar/Banjo/Lap Steel and Vocals, Lilton on Percussion/Vocals, Mike on Mandolin/Drums and Chris on Bass. Describing themselves as "Laconic and laid back reggae to steamy crunchy blues." The Gritty Git Down starts with unique song writing then melds the bands diverse musical influences blending blues, reggae, and rock.
Nick and Brian where childhood friends. They where the core of Whiskey Jars and Scandals.
Mike and Chris met as members of On the Porch.
Lilton was a friend and it turns out we learned he can sing the blues while having jam sessions in the basement.
We practice and hang out in the Bay View neighborhood in Milwaukee Wisconsin
