The Faux Paws: Is it bluegrass? Not usually. Old-time? Occasionally. Is it Celtic? Can’t quite say that. Folk? Americana? Jazz? None of the above, but members of the bi-coastal quartet, the Faux Paws, have deep ties to all of these traditions and blend their elements effortlessly to serve whatever musical idea is being presented. They’re dynamic, exciting, sincere, irreverent, infectious, and surprising. They move deftly between moods, influences and instruments but always maintaining a “groove” that pulses through the music like a heartbeat.
