About Me

Strong Shoulder CD
$10.00 + Postage
The Atlas Stringband is a Seattle-based group of friends bound together by a common love of old-time music. The current lineup fell into place during the 2006 Festival of American Fiddle Tunes in Port Townsend, WA where the jamming is practically nonstop and the people are authentic. If you like old-time music, check it out.
The rocking tunes, hard driving rhythms and sweet song harmonies that we play trace their roots to the 1920s, 30s and 40s, the golden era of old-time and early bluegrass music. While the music has evolved stylistically since then, the fundamental purpose of playing old-time music has remained unchanged - to foster community, to celebrate dance, and for personal enjoyment. We hope our music honors the spirit of the tradition and that you enjoy it too!
