Collecting traditional material and presenting it with their own eclectic filter, Pickers Anonymous layers high lonesome harmonies on Appalachian sounds from Old-Time, Bluegrass, Early Country and Hillbilly Blues. Their debut record, Patchwork, is slated for release in late 2025 via EarthTone Records.
The Folk School features some of the finest regional and national acts performing eclectic roots music. We’ll have standard seating available, first come first serve. A donation of $5-15 per adult is suggested, but all are welcome regardless of contribution. Folk School Students and Staff are not asked to donate. Any funds raised support traditional arts and help us strive for equitable pay for performers. *Lineup and schedule are subject to change, for the most up to date details check the schedule at www.folkschool.org/concerts
