Jayme Stone

World-wise folk music!

 

Two-time Juno-winning banjoist Jayme Stone and his Room of Wonders makes music inspired by sounds from around the world bridging folk, jazz and chamber music. His award-winning albums both defy and honor the banjo’s long role in the world’s music, turning historical connections into compelling music. Stone’s unique study of music and style of play makes you immediately forget the banjo’s country roots…” This is banjo like you’ve never heard it before.” - Ottawa Citizen

A joyous Americana trio!

 

Since 2004, Americana trio Red Molly has been bringing audiences to their feet with gorgeous three-part harmonies, crisp musicianship, and their warm, engaging stage presence. Their performances give off such a warm feeling that fans feel they are watching a group of friends sharing songs in their living room.  With bluegrass-tinged folk and a touch of jazzy western influences, The Boston Globe praised their latest album for its "tick-tight arrangements, crystalline vocals and caramel harmonies.”
