It was such an honor and a treat to perform at the University of Kentucky, where Dr. Revell Carr runs the John Jacob Niles Center for American Music. Through our music, we love continuing the practice of combining the traditional with the new. . . . . . . . . . . . . #americanshaker #lexington #lexingtonky #oldtime #oldtimeensemble #uncg #uncgsom #uncgsmtd #violin #fiddle #accordion #mandolin #guitar #bass #vocals #folk #folkmusic #newgrass #bluegrass #chambermusic #liveperformance #indiemusic #indiefolk #newmusic

Our journey continues! We're so grateful to be collaborating with not one but two historic Shaker sites in Kentucky this March. On March 30th, we'll be partnering with Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill to present The Gift of Shaker Music, a workshop focused on the theological contexts of Shaker singing, including performances of hymns composed at Pleasant Hill. Later that evening, we will perform a concert of our original music. Both events will take place in the historic Meeting House, site of the Shaker worship services. We hope to see you there! . . . . . . . . . . . . . #americanshaker #oldtime #folkband #stringband #bluegrass #theology #indie #indiemusic #shakervillage #kentucky #musichistory #hyms #indiefolk #folkmusic #newmusic #oldmusic #violin #fiddle #choir #singing #quakers #mandolin #guitar #bass #newfolk #chambermusic #historichomes #historichouses

Friends, we're thrilled to announce our collaboration with South Union Shaker Village. On March 28th, Winterbirds will present Rejoice: Roots of Shaker Musical Expression in the 1824 Centre House. An exploration of the unique style and theological contexts of Shaker singing, this program will also feature performances of two hymns by Sister Eunice Freehart, a former slave who lived free at South Union in the 19th century. Written before 1835, these hymns were re-discovered in manuscript form by South Union's historians, and have perhaps not been heard since the closure of the Shaker Village in 1922. Our presentation will be followed that evening by a performance of our original music at the 1869 South Union Hotel. Stay tuned for more details! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #americanshaker #oldtime #folkband #stringband #folkmusic #bluegrass #indiefolk #indiemusic #newfolk #newmusic #hymns #kentucky #blackhistorymonth #blackhistory #africanamericanhistory #history #museum #livemusic
