With so much to write and sing about, Maine is a very special place for folk music. It is a state of lofty mountains, fragrant balsam forests, and a craggy, island-dotted coast. And it has hard-working people whose ancestors emigrated from Canada, France, Ireland, Scotland, England, and Wales. These influences come together in every performance of the Maine-based Dave Rowe Trio. Dave Rowe, Ed Howe, and Kevin O’Reilly make authentic Maine music, driven by lyrical fiddle melodies and hearty three-part harmonies that sound as rugged as the coast they sing about. To truly experience Maine, you have to go there. But to have a taste of Maine’s music, humor and stories wherever you are, invite the Dave Rowe Trio to perform a concert. Lobsters are optional!
This show begins with a HOOT (otherwise known as an Open Mike.) Four performers take the stage for one song each. Sign-ups are on the day of the show and begin during ticket sales. Come early to sign up!
