Five
Star Homeless, led by Matt Griffith, has steadily gained popularity on
the Canadian prairie roots music scene since the year 2000. Hailing
from the heart of their beloved province of Saskatchewan this Saskatoon
band continues to seduce audiences with a unique and original brand of
music. Their distinct musical style resonates with the traditional
sounds of country, bluegrass and rockabilly while never failing to make
a connection between the old and the new.
This
versatility enables Five Star Homeless to entertain a listening
audience ranging from the younger and more aggressive listeners to
those with a more mature and refined musical taste. While Five Star
Homeless takes pride in their instrumental diversity, the band's
primary focus is on storytelling. Not of the tales and myths commonly
associated with the Saskatchewan prairie but the stories of the people
whose effect on this proud and unique culture has been considerably
more subtle and indirect.
