The Nellies are an Albany, NY based, rootsy, alt-country, Americana band. The band is driven by core singer-songwriter duo, Karen Gilpin (acoustic guitar/banjo) and Peggy Lecuyer (mandolin/harmonica) who both contribute driving rhythms and beautiful two part harmonies to their songs. They are joined by Gene Lemme who keeps The Nellies in line on the upright bass.  The Nellies will be performing at the Autumn Cafe this Saturday, May 12th, starting at 9:30pm.  I talked with Peggy of the group who describes below what kind of experience you'll enjoy if you come out to the show.
