Live Music @theBrewCabin with New Relm

What happens when modern country, honky-tonk, bluegrass, folk and blues collide?

You get a diverse, yet dynamic, blend of music, vocal styles and instrumentation.

NEW RELM plays both catchy originals and cover tunes. Original members and partners for 18+ years, Harold Olmstead III and Elise Sproul, are known for their entertaining performances, tight harmonies, versatility and evocative vocals. Harold plays guitar, harmonica or fiddle and Elise plays guitar, banjo, dobro, fiddle, flute or bass. Many of their songs have a western or rural theme.

NEW RELM’s last three albums called “JUST US”, “THE WAY WE LIVE” and “CATCHING DREAMS” include mostly originals and a few songs of public domain. They will be releasing a new album in 2025! Several of New Relm’s songs capture the west such as Bronk Stomper (about a man who breaks horses for a living) and Narrow Line (about the devotion of a bull rider’s wife). Some send a message, others are about love and some encompass Maine life such as Allagash (which refers to Northern Maine’s wilderness area), Where The Three Rivers Flow and Outlaw’s Banjo (about a Maine train robbery in the Appalachian Mountains). These albums can all be heard on streaming platforms such as Spotify, Amazon Music, iTunes, Pandora, etc.

NEW RELM has won several first place awards through DECMA (Down East Country Music Association), performed with various, very, accomplished musicians and also played for VIP parties in Wyoming during “Longmire Days” where the Longmire actors of the Netflix TV series “Longmire” attended. They also appear on an episode of “Horse TV” where you see and hear them playing for the ranch guests at Rich’s Montana Guest Ranch in Seeley Lake, MT.

NEW RELM has toured for 5 summers so far in the “wild west” with hopes to perform throughout Maine and other New England states as well as broaden their tours to other parts of the United States and Canada. They cater to the venue they are performing at, such as, indoor and outdoor concerts & festivals, special events, private functions, ranches and upscale clubs.
