LEHTO & WRIGHT
www.lehtoandwright.com
The Lehto and Wright sound is a unique blend of traditional and modern styles. By taking cues from the Irish, English and American folk traditions and blending them with a healthy dose of original compositions, Lehto and Wright have taken a fresh approach to the world of folk, and with the addition of Matt Jacobs on drums and percussion, folk rock.
As a duo, John Wright and Steve Lehto perform the same material as with Jacobs only in art acoustic- "unplugged" setting. From American spirituals to Irish tune sets, their accomplished twin guitar-mandolin approach has all the intensity and power of the full band with half the volume. John Wright's current offering "Just Left of Center" is a good indicator of where the collaborative team of Lehto and Wright is heading. Currently performing music from "Just Left of Center" and from their debut CD, John Wright and Steve Lehto offer an exciting live performance of traditional and contemporary folk music with an eclectic twist.
