The Helltown Breakdowners

About Me

The Breakdowners, also known as the Idumea Social Orchestrae, Barrow Wheary and the Boogerface Boys, the Old Virginia Possum Stompers, or simply the Possum Players, play traditional string music from the land of hog and hominy, punkin and possum, where whiskey is made out of corn, and women don't smell like talcum powder!
