Tasty Tuesdays 2009

Bedford Farmer's Market
Bedford, Virginia
Tuesdays 3:00 - 7:00 PM
June - ?

After three years of doing this every other Tuesday, we're going to be dropping down to "cameo" status on this. We'll be by once in a while, maybe as solos and maybe in duets. This may be more of a "jam session" this year than the "live practise" it's been in years past. As always, the Farmer's Market will be serving up some tasty treats and crafts, and music will be there too. Come on by!

Watch for us ...

Coming in 2009, we're going to add an actual blog to this site ... watch for it! This will be a normal, moderated blog with comment sections for you to talk back, share, etc. The subject could be music ... or politics, theology, random musings ... you never know! Mostly it will be the Folk doing the posting, but we may have some occasional guest-bloggers. Just more Folk fun!

It's who we are. It's what we do.

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.

Folks are struggling ... and we are too! But that's no reason not to have good folk music.
Drop us a line and get a couple, and spread the Folk even in hard times.
