The bands & themes posted here are truly the best! Fralinger in Copacabana truly one of a kind! Music & presentation so powerful! Hoping Mummers continue & the awesome traditions of great stringband music with creativity! Love the old time sounds!
The Music From The Hills are Alive Quaker City String Band Performance in 1991 is Captured in That Championship Sound CD Made By Quaker City. It’s one of the Best Stringband CDs Ever Made.
I have loved the mummers from the time I was a kid and always will they are the best
