The Homegrown String Band™ brings an American folk tradition into the twenty-first century, a family of musicians collaborating in organic fashion with a unique repertoire  of original and traditional music inspired by the classic sounds of rural America. Comprised of husband and wife plus daughter, this dynamic trio utilizes an eclectic palette of instruments including guitar, banjo, dulcimer, mandolin, banjo-ukulele, harmonica, jaw-harp, and doumbek to add their own musical DNA to an American tradition. The Homegrown String Band™ will take you on a musical journey from ancient ballads of the British Isles to blues and bluegrass of the twentieth century.
