GENERIC FOLK

UPCOMING GIGS

Clam Diggers

Cheap Date Night
Every Tuesday
7:00 - 9:00 PM

The Folk are jammin' every Tuesday at Clam Diggers in Bridge St. This is "Open Mic without the Mic", and we're trying out new material, new arrangements, jamming with other musicians, doing solos ... just having a good time. The seafood is excellent, the acoustics are great! If you want to play, come on out & bring your instrument. If you just want to eat, THIS is the place right now in Bedford. See you there!

Watch for us ...

Check our our new blog! This is 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. (Contact us if you want to guest-author something) Just more Folk fun!

As February draws to a close, look out for the "Winter Is On Its Knees" party ... a blowout bash! ... or
... check back here!

Check our Band Notes page for all of our recent experiences and follow Paul's new adventures with Minus John, as he takes up playing guitar with a hot blues/rock band in the area. If we ever play a gig together, Paul is gonna be busy.

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

Who We Are

We're a collection of folk musicians 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.
