RIVER ROUGE

Together, you & me, the alchemy is pure energy.

About Me

"The band-and the sound---is stripped-down. Something simple, yet mature. Traditional instrumentation on every track: acoustic guitar, violin, mandolin, lap-steel, banjo, and harmonica... I wanted to create an organic, warm atmosphere. Luckily, I have great friends who are also fantastic musicians, and they help make all this possible." MyGen Profile Generator

Back from Colorado...

We just got back from playing in Colorado, 11,000 ft above sea level, that in itself, a mind bending experience... Fun and very strange, can't wait to go back! The shows went well, sold out of CD's, ...

Bluegrass

I love Bluegrass music. I'm a late arrival to the whole thing, really. When I was younger I was one of those rock elitist types who thought the movie Deliverance fairly summed up the experience... ...

You might as well blame a hen for cackling....
