Who We Are

We're a folk band in the Bedford, Virginia area.
Our music is a blend of traditional acoustic folk, innovative vocals and arrangements, and electric edge.
We've all got day jobs, but music is our passion.
Learn more about who we are.

What We Do

We take a non-traditional approach to folk music. We start with genre material from American folk, folk/rock, Country&Western, Irish, Scottish, Canadian, poems, lyrical ballads, and original songwriters and then spin up our own take on it, using stylistic influences from blues, ragtime, R&B, rock, gospel, Celtic, and the folk ballad tradition.

You'll discover that though we're GENERIC FOLK, the music is anything but ordinary.
