Homegrown String Band

Caffe Lena
Saratoga Springs, NY


Tonight we want you to bring the kids along and show them how much fun can be had without TV, iPods or screens of any sort! The Homegrown String Band is a "100% Natural, Organic" band, homegrown by Georgianne and Rick Jackofsky and their two daughters. Inspired by the rural string bands of the early 20th century, this genuine family band utilizes harmony singing, guitar, banjo, fiddle, harmonica, jawharp, and percussive dance to put their own stamp on blues, bluegrass, and classic country.
    Our favorite part of the show is when mom and daughters face off in an Appalachian flat-foot dancing showdown, with feet kicking high and smacking down hard in a delightfully playful feast of percussion, with fiddle bows flying all the while!

Note: Doors open a 1/2 hour before showtime. Please do not arrive any earlier. We need private time for set-up and soundcheck.
