Such a mixture of styles it’s hard to point to just one. Jazz. Blues. Country. Rock. Folk. Take your pick. Or all of the above.  There lies the beauty of the band’s music.  A blended style all the Dirty Urchins’ own. The band was born one winter’s night back in early 2009. Freddie Stevenson and David Luther decided the answer to their economic woes was music. Busking around New York City, they were joined by Bennett Miller. Upon leaving a subway station one day, Stevenson commented, "My god, we're like a bunch of dirty urchins!" The band had its name. Time passed, and in the summer of 2010 Luther had the privilege of touring with the legendary rocker Meat Loaf. In Luther’s absence, Julia Haltigan, stepped in. The Dirty Urchins were now four members. Tinged with humor and never one to take things too seriously, the Dirty Urchins speak to all music sensibilities. Grabs you, and captivates you. The harmonies. The saxophone. The acoustics. Their music has a little bit for everyone. It’s wide-open, fluid and ever-changing. The true synthesis of music. Set to take on many shapes. The Dirty Urchins. Rock n’ folk n’ country n’ blues n’ jazz n’ … roll! [bandcamp track=3809028232  bgcol=FFFFFF linkcol=4285BB size=grande] Check them out on Twitter and Facebook
