Foghorn Stringband

Hailing from Portland, Oregon, Foghorn Stringband is considered one of the finest old-time string bands on the West Coast. Noted for “intense dedication to the sources” of the tradition, their music is billed as “a blend of high-spirited Appalachian dance music tying in sounds of traditional mountain fiddle tunes.” Their interpretation of “old time” is played with the energy and edginess of punk rock that has a tremendous degree of technical finesse.
