The Wicked Chicken

The Wicked Chicken plays a mix of driving rock ’n’ roll, old-time fiddle
and blues. Armed with exciting new material, a powerful groove and a unique
sound, the Wicked Chicken will surprise and captivate audiences of all
varieties. The foundation of the band are the Tritsch brothers: Gus
(guitar, vocals and fiddle) and Huck (drums, percussion and fiddle). The
two have performed with distinguished musicians including the rock band
Marah, and have earned recognition at various festivals and competitions
including the Appalachian String Band Music Festival, known as Clifftop. In
2019, Huck Tritsch won first prize in the youth fiddle competition at
Clifftop, and the Wicked Chicken placed second in the neo-traditional band
competition. Gus Tritsch won the prize for best original fiddle tune as
well. Most recently, Gus Tritsch toured with Jake Blount, a distinguished
fiddle and banjo player from Providence, R.I. With Blount’s band, Gus
Tritsch traveled extensively, including to Florida, Alaska and the United
Kingdom. The Wicked Chicken is constantly exploring different influences
and sounds, and you never know what you might hear at any one show. But
whether it’s old-time fiddle music, north Mississippi blues or driving rock
’n’ roll, The Wicked Chicken will play it with creativity, rhythm and soul.
