About Me

Mulberry Grove is a group of friends who love making music. You could call them a folk band, drawing on Ozark Mountain influences and the Dylan theme. But they are also aware of what's happening in the world of popular, indie, experimental and alternative music. Their music is orginal as is their sound. music layout @ HOT FreeLayouts.com MyHotComments
