The band got its start at the Dance Flurry Festival in Saratoga Springs. The idea for the band was to incorporate a lot of different kinds of acoustic-based music and styles. But we are increasingly receiving calls to play Irish venues and festivals and have enlarged our repertoire in that area.
Featured instruments include hammered dulcimer, violin, viola, guitars and bass. Most of our band members are multi-instrumentalists, so don’t be surprised to hear percussion, whistles, recorders, accordion, cello and harp, especially on recordings.
Our band took its name for the city where we all met plus its influence of the band Fairport Convention and the Faire where we find some of our “old song” material.

Put together the first music video for one of the songs, that being for the song "Eel Marsh House", which is based on the movie "The Woman In Black". Wasn't sure to name it that instead of 'Eel Marsh..." ...Eel Marsh House being where the woman in black 'lived', and now haunts it. Though, she seems to haunt the general area of the village as well as the House. If anyone catches her gaze, looks into her eyes....a child will die, usually from the family of the person unfortunate to look at her. As you see what happens to the story's main character at the end.
Hope you like it, that's about all for now, Cheers! Rob
