Mad Hallelujah delivers a righteous and raucous audience-inclusive live experience driven by their dynamic signature sound, which incorporates classic rock, americana-folk, psychedelic jam, funk, and bluegrass influences. Igniting dance floors and lifting up spirits, Mad Hallelujah sets are a playful invitation to get “down & dirty… high & holy.”

“Classifying the sonic fusion of Mad Hallelujah is the hard part. The easy part is letting the copious volumes of warmth and ecstatic energy wash over you as their performance organically unfolds. The band’s recent debut at Crazy Horse Saloon in Nevada City, CA was one of those landmark events I could imagine looking back with a sense of wonder after they conquer the world. It’s rare to see a band dedicate a nearly three hour show exclusively to original music and to have an audience hanging with them on every note. Not only that, but jumping up and down, dancing with abandon and smiling from ear to ear. These guys have their sense of dynamics so well refined, each song is like a gypsy spell, enrapturing one’s sense. They take listeners on a journey through realms of funky folk, jam-tronica and tribal stomps. It’s that feeling we all covet of not knowing what’s going to happen next and relishing the spontaneity. This is evolved music dripping with passion and intention. Just when you thought everything had already been done, there emerges Mad Hallelujah.” Tyler Blue, Talent Buyer/Promoter – Crazy Horse Saloon (Nevada City, CA)
