The Mammals
The Mammals bring high-energy, heart-forward Americana that bridges audiences of all ages. With string-band fire, indie-folk depth, and socially conscious storytelling they create a live experience that’s both a celebration and a call to connection. Mike Merenda & Ruth Ungar are known for rafter-raising performances, pin-drop balladry, and a rare ability to move crowds from dancing to reflecting and back again. Their 2025 double album, Touch Grass Vol. 1 & 2, explores freedom, kinship, and ecological repair.
“The Woody / Pete spirit of the 1940s-’50s can be found more vibrantly in their music than anywhere else in 2025 . . . their music deeply deserves to be heard from the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters.” – No Depression
“A national treasure.” – Anais Mitchell
”A party band with a conscience” – Boston Globe
