Old-Time Music
at YOUR request!
Many fine musicians are
available to play acoustic old-time music in Jackson and Josephine
counties. Three to ten musicians (complete with portable sound
equipment) can be provided on fairly short notice. Regular play
dates as well as special events can be scheduled for larger groups such as
retirement homes. We are already "regulars" at many places.
The players often wear
western dress.
A typical group consists of various acoustic instruments including fiddles,
guitars, banjos, mandolins, and often a stand-up bass, but no drums.
None of our instruments "plug in" to an amplifier. However,
microphones for instrument and vocal amplification are used as needed.
We provide wholesome,
family-oriented entertainment and prefer to perform where alcoholic
beverages are not served.

Our rates are VERY
reasonable! We are all volunteer, non-professional musicians, and
we strive to keep
old-time music vibrant and alive. Many of our musicians compete at
fiddle contests in Oregon and also at the annual national fiddle
convention in Weiser, Idaho. Many are retired or semi-retired, but our
younger performers are also eager participants as their schedules
permit.
Note that all
performance income goes into our general or scholarship fund. A limited
number of "pro bono" performances are also given each month.
Please call Judy McGarvey
for details.
