My old friends Folks Together, one of the great New England Americana groups, has a CD release party at the Narrows on Saturday, September 10th.The other day they sent out this "postcard" via email to invite people to the show. While I haven't confirmed this yet, I suspect this is the cover of the new CD, which is still being "nipped and tucked" for release.
It would be a neat cover, huh? That's singer Donna Olson, next to her husband, guitarist/singer Jeff Olson (who has produced a couple compilation CDs with your humble blogger), guitarist/banjo player/singer Rick Bellaire with the big smile, bassist and singer John Dunn hugging his bass, and Vinnie Pasternak apparently looking at a map or something as the "Pilgrims" seek their way. Vinnie plays anything with strings, but mostly violin and guitar, and can sing too. If you enjoy JP Jones' CDs, you may be interested in knowing that Vinnie pops up on JP's stuff from time to time, though only on record, not on stage, to the best of my memory.
If you enjoy folk music with a 1960s feel, you'll enjoy Folks Together. Listen to some of their stuff by clicking here.
