Description

Theoretical Blonde

Formed in 2023, Theoretical Blonde is a 5-piece bluegrass-adjacent band from Salt Lake City with a sound that feels both familiar and refreshingly unexpected. Its members include Peter Cain (mandolin, vocals), Ford Huntington (Guitar, vocals), Grayson Wickel (Fiddle, Banjo, vocals), Patrick McNally (Bass, vocals), and Daniel McNally (Keys). Despite the name, none of the band members are actually blonde, which seems to be a fun little misdirect. What is true is that their music takes cues from bluegrass, jazz, americana, country, jam band, and singer-songwriter traditions, blending these styles into a dynamic and energetic mix. With the addition of keys and electric bass, they expand the traditional bluegrass palette, creating a fuller sound that’s as comfortable with intricate picking as it is with laid-back, groove-driven jams. The group doesn’t try to be tied to one sound or genre; instead, they focus on making music that’s genuine, without worrying about where it fits in the larger landscape.
