Wepecket Island records is a traditional American music label. We have been privileged to work on recording projects with some of the finest tradition-based players in North America, including Andru Bemis, Andy Cohen, The Dillonaires, Diana Gray, Dale Robin Goodman, Jim McGrath, Robin O'Herin, the late Bobbie Enos, the late Andy Wolf, and the late Al Oliveira, to name a few. We are continually seeking emerging and established traditional artists to add to our catalogue.
Details about all of these players can be found at http://www.wepecket.com.
Our "Rolling Roots Revue" is a twice-yearly road show in which most of our artists participate stopping in 20-25 locales each spring and fall. Suggestions for venues are always welcome.
