Hurt & Skip has been breaking the mold over and over again, blowing minds with a sound that blends a respect for the blues innovators of the past with modern energy and the art of compelling and live performances that tug on the heart and feel like an emotional rollercoaster. This blues trio is nothing short of ground breaking with their introduction of a new genre they call “Tribal Blues”. Since the band's inception in 2019, Hurt & Skip has been presenting their art to crowds all over the southeastern United States.  Guitarist Shane Pruitt brings a range of textures to the band's sound by switching effortlessly from acoustic guitar to traditional open tuning styles on dobro pulling brass and glass slides over the nickel bound strings to create a haunting yet sweet emotional push and pull that only a veteran of the blues like himself can tame. Percussionist Jason “Slice” Phillips is a groove hurricane and keeps the kick drum driving forcing any hips to sway and swing when infected with his ability to do what sounds like fifteen things at once. Singer Joe Power brings an array of vocal styles that soar over the band taking big risks and always landing on his feet whether it's a tender ballad or a scorching buzz saw. Hurt & Skip has graced the airwaves with many of their songs on regular rotation at WNCW 88.7 as well as on air performances on “Live From Studio B”. Hurt & Skip has self recorded, produced and released 3 albums as well as a live album. Hurt & Skip has collaborated, performed and recorded with legends of the industry including Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Lynyrd Skynyrd drummer Artimus Pyle of which their original song “Old Man” was tracked live and released on iTunes and video is available on YouTube. Hurt & Skip has performed at venues ranging from the Fall For Greenville Music and Arts Festival to the legendary Grant's Lounge in Macon GA as well as GABBA Fest hosted by members of the Georgia Alman Brothers Band Association.
