Folk with Bill Staines

WHFMS regulars will be delighted to see Bill again — he was here when we started in 1973 and has returned every year since. A beloved icon in the folk music world, his contemporary American classics have been covered by the best in the business, from Priscilla Herdman to the Clancy Brothers. He is our own New England Cowboy, a national treasure, a wonderfully subtle left-handed guitarist, a singing storyteller whose songs of nature and humanity tell the tale of America: Yukon explorers, young couples, long-distance truckers, sailors, pilots, and of course singing animals. He’s guaranteed to warm hearts of any age and to get you singing along. Bring friends, family, grandkids — and especially your singing voice. “One of the best songwriters in folk music today.” – Associated Press
