Jayme Stone’s Folklife<\/h4>\n

With spellbinding singing and virtuosic playing, this album blows the dust off of old songs and remakes them for modern ears.<\/p>\n

“Jayme Stone’s Folklife” follows the bends and bayous through the deep river of song, story and folkways. Evolving out of the “Lomax Project,” this gathering of versatile musicians blows the dust off of old songs and remakes them for modern ears. With spellbinding singing, virtuosic playing and captivating storytelling, their concerts and educational programs are moving, inventive and participatory experiences.<\/p>\n
