Brendon Phillips, son of songwriter/storyteller/activist, U.Utah Phillips, is a social worker and has been working with the Nevada County homeless community for several years. Brendan is also a musician/singer/songwriter in his own right with Fast Rattler, a collaboration of kindred spirits, inspired by all things Utah. Encompassing a wide range of musical influences; from Americana and Bluegrass to gypsy-jammin’ wood-punk, Phillips and Fast Rattler pay homage to the songs of Utah while also adding their own spin, reimagining Utah’s songs in a string band format.
