ABOUT ONE HORSE TOWN
Janet Emma Garbe and Julia Kasdorf met in May 2000 and discovered they had a knack for harmony singing, penning, and arranging songs together. Rounded out by stellar "high lonesome" pedal steel man Lynn Kasdorf, and later joined by the inimitable lead guitarist Stuart Martin, OHT is joined by DC's busiest bass players Rick Petrocelli and Nick Mcallister, and the talented and versatile drummer Danny Schwartz of Band House Gigs.
ONE HORSE TOWN performs in the VA/DC/MD region regularly, and began heading out nationally in 2007, including the legendary Blue Bird Cafe, Nashville.
OHT has been blessed to have shared the stage with Nashville up-and-comers Last Train Home, Dead Reckoner Kevin Welch, Rickie Simpkins, Jon Carroll, Jimmy Gaudreau, John Starling, Austin Cunningham, the Marshall Tucker Band, and recently, the entire stellar DC music community for the Bob Dylan Tribute at the gorgeous Strathmore Music Hall, Rockville, MD!
Venues such as the renowned Jammin' Java, Iota Club & Cafe, Ashland Tea & Coffee, and the State Theater have welcomed OHT for repeat performances. In early 2008, OHT realized a dream by playing the Birchmere in Alexandria,
opening a sold-out show for pals Eddie from Ohio.
Popular international music magazine No Depression published a stellar review of OHT and their debut release, Dawn Will Deliver, in the Jan/Feb 2007 edition of Hot Wax submitted by DC area journalist/reviewer Buzz McLain. On Friday, June 29th, 200, Mike Joyce of the Washington Post gave an amazing review of OHT, calling their cd "a gem" . We were blown away. Thanks, Mike! Three years in the making, OHT's debut release, Dawn Will Deliver, reflects a deep love of music, especially roots, alt-country and bluegrass, and a commitment to carrying the torch for greats who came before - Buck, Emmy Lou, the Louvins, and more recent heavies like Kevin Welch, Kelly Willis, Patty Loveless, Patty Griffin, and Buddy and Julie Miller.
Jon Carroll of the Mary Chapin Carpenter Band and Starland Vocal Band skillfully produced the project. Jon's profound instrumental and vocal contributions are accented by the artful mastering touch of Mr. Bill Wolf at his studio in Arlington, VA. Bill has worked with Tony Rice, Emmy Lou Harris, Willy Nelson, and pop favorites Eddie From Ohio. Rhythm monsters and OHT buddies Martin Lynds and Jim Carson Gray came aboard for the debut recording on loan from alt-country heroes Last Train Home.
