Vision Crystal
Those who are fans of Dani, Savii, and Justin separately will not be surprised to see this latest collaboration. Everyone in this trio shares the lead on multiple instruments, bringing a passion for music that can clearly be witnessed when they perform together. Switching between originals and a wide range of covers – from Blues, Americana, Rock, Folk, and Bluegrass – their love for stringed instruments breathes life into their music.
This dynamic trio met several years ago in St. Petersburg, FL. At the time, all were playing various venues in separate projects, coming together around the campfires of music festivals to play their favorite songs. They quickly realized their musical chemistry, just in time for both ladies in the group to move to new cities in separate states chasing different dreams. Throughout their travels, and all they’ve learned along the way, music always remained the core driving force of their aspirations. Together, they are excited to be home (for now) playing music for the Florida music family who have supported their dreams from the beginning.

On “From the Mountains to the Sea,” The Wandering Hour’ s musical intentions are clear, highlighting a yearning for a connection to the past while acknowledging the forward march of time. There’s a deep reverence for traditional folk music, yet with a crooked view of the modern world. At times they sound like a string band of a long lost 78 rpm shellac record, but heard through a crystal ball, or under the influence of an oracle elixir poured by your festival friends. From the raucous to the harmonious, the eleven songs sound like going on an adventure to a place that’s new to you but still feels at home. “The Wandering Hours seamlessly blends string band vibes into a modern, harmony-driven sound.” -Creative Loafing Tampa The Wandering Hours are a rare group that is not only fun and engaging with the audience, but absolute tops on their instruments, drawing from folk traditions and metamodern thinking alike with topics ranging from the perpetuity of time to some good ole drinking songs. Banjo, mandolin, fiddle, guitar and upright bass underscore the Florida band’s thoughtful lyrics and storytelling. They were named Creative Loafing Tampa’s Best Bluegrass Band for 2024 and Roots/Alt-County Band Best of the Bay in 2019 and 2020. The band has shared bills with national acts such as Del McCoury Band, Jim Lauderdale, Peter Rowan, Tim O’Brien, and John McEuen, and have appeared at festivals such as the Gasparilla Music Festival, Florida Folk Festival, Americana Fest and a myriad of bluegrass festivals.
