Widely respected as one of the leading figures in American traditional music, Tom Sauber is particularly known for his long time partnerships with Oklahoma fiddler, Earl Collins and Round Peak banjo picker Eddie Lowe. As a member of Tom, Brad and Alice with Brad Leftwich and Alice Gerrard,has toured extensively through North America, Europe and Australia.
One of the few harmonica players schooled in the melodic and rhythmic intricacies of old-time music, Mark Graham plays in a powerful but lyrical blues-tinged style that recalls the finest banjo and fiddle playing. With over 35 years of harmonicizing, Mark has gained an encyclopedic knowledge of American country and blues styles that caused Kim Field, author of "Harmonicas, Harps and Heavy Breathers" to call him "a walking gold mine of harmonica lore and The Old-Time Herald to call him "one of the pre-eminent harmonica players blowing today."
There will be songs and tunes ranging the entire spectrum of old-time music from lonesome terror to mountain hilarity, Eternal Doom to Festival Love.
