Hello Friends and Fans,
Well, yes, we are college basketball fans, so it gets tricky around here in March to schedule music gigs around games. But honestly, music wins out most of the time!
We'll be out and about in a number of different configurations this month; good thing we're both Gemini; helps sometimes to have a split personality! Lucy is starting things off this month playing at the Polk County (NC) library with the BattleAxe Band, then Lucy and Marshall will help with celebrating KidFest at Hagood Mill early in the day, and an early St. Pat's celebration at church that evening.
Marshall and Square Root will be playing a private celebration on March 21st.
We're ending the month playing at the nice dance hall in Sautee Nacoochee, Georgia (near Helen) as the Wolf Moon String Band. The lineup this time will be Marshall and Amy Buckingham on twin fiddles, Bob Buckingham on banjo and/or mandolin, and Lucy on guitar. Should be a fun night!
If you want to know more about all these contradances we keep mentioning, look up Harvest Moon Folk Society or the Old Farmers Ball (in Swannanoa) or Blue Ridge Contra (in Saluda NC) and you can find more info and links to some great dances.
And we welcome a new old-time jam to this region--Stomping Grounds Coffee and Wine Bar, 208 Trade Street, Greer, SC on the first Tuesday of the month, starting at 7 pm.
Hope to see you soon; thanks for supporting live, local music!
