Sly Violet Live at Rockford Grill

Unique. Energetic. Toe-tapping goodness. Sly Violet is an indie pop folk rock husband-and-wife duo. From small towns in Ontario and Nova Scotia, they are now based in British Columbia, Canada. Featuring Sly Boston (drums) and Violet Clarke (guitar, harmonica, keyboard, vocals), the combination of their innovative instrumentation and Violet’s hauntingly beautiful voice, has created a sound that is refreshing to the ear. Taking cues from Neil Young, Alanis Morissette and Jack Johnson, Sly Violet also draws inspiration from time spent in nature and the land and forests around them, often filming music videos in beautiful Canadian landscapes.Sly Violet is gaining momentum in Canada after touring extensively over the past decade.
