Blue Light Sessions: Big Dirty Boots & Sheri Marie Ptolemy

Blue Light Sessions presents Big Dirty Boots & Sheri Marie Ptolemy for an extra special show on a Saturday night!

Big Dirty Boots bring together a blend of West Coast Country and Americana, rooted in childhood friendship. This rich history brings playful stage banter and a relaxed but engaging musical chemistry that makes audiences feel at home.

Drawing on influences such as early Ed Sheeran, Tim O’brien, or Be Good Tanyas their music is built around original harmony driven songs in the spirit of Milk Carton Kids. Kaj Falch-Nielsen & Tad Ruszel share lead vocals, play guitars, mandolin, and kick drum with Dave Peters supporting on the bass and cello.

Big Dirty Boots were finalists for the Georgia Straight's Best of Vancouver 2023, fan favourites at Islands Folk Festival in 2024 & have dozens of sync placements for film and television from their 2013 debut album. With the first of 2 albums out from the upcoming release, Heartbreak and Fairytales, there is plenty of buzz for the upcoming singles arriving through 2026.
