MUSIC

We have three full-length CDs of original songs: The Squirrel Hillbillies (2012), Goody Shoes (2014), and On the Loose (2020).  Lyrics are available here.

You can stream and download whole albums or individual songs from Spotify, Apple Music and other music distributors. Hard copies are in circulation through many public libraries, making it easy for folks to "check us out."

Thanks to a supportive community of folk DJs, our music has gotten radio play on stations across the US and around the world. 

"Well-crafted tunes and spotless recording"
