Meet the Band
Sculpted from the coasts of New England, Hollow Turtle is a bluegrass, folk, americana duo based out of Warren RI. Band Members include James Cappelletti (Banjo), and Joseph Cappelletti (Bass). Starting in 2012 with the goal of bringing traditional Bluegrass to the Rhode Island area, the band has since evolved into a group that pulls influence from the traditional styles, while incorporating a unique spin of their own.
“Hollow Turtle bucks the trends of folk rock moving into the world of saccharine, overly commercial pop ballads. Old-school style brings new-world grief to light in their careening, tightly wound vocal harmonies. Relentless strumming and plucking from the string section lifts the harrowed singing to great heights. Even the most steadfast bluegrass disparager will find their foot tapping when Hollow Turtle gets to it.”
