The Gawler Family Band brings you an assortment of old and new sounds from many folk traditions. They accompany interweaving family harmonies with fiddles, banjo, cello and guitar, as well as a few surprises.

Whether they are crooning a poignant ballad or delivering a rollicking fiddle tune, their unique arrangements are especially engaging and often go along with anecdotes of historical or humorous content.

Although the Gawlers may be best known for their extensive collection of dance tunes in the Scots-Irish and French Canadian traditions, their repertoire may include a gutsy ‘Sweet Honey in the Rock’ style a'capella worksong or an amusing ode to everyday life.

With their infectious spirit and sparkling musicianship, and with several albums to their credit, the Gawlers have earned a beloved place in the delighted hearts of varied audiences across the Northeast.

Low Lily’s Winter Solstice Celebration 

American roots band Low Lily celebrates the Solstice! Rooted in the rich vocal and fiddle traditions of North America, acclaimed folk trio Low Lily shares fiddle tunes alongside lushly arranged songs to honor the wintry season. Between them, the musicians play mandolin, guitars, fiddle, banjo, and sing in three-part vocal harmonies.

Low Lily’s annual Winter Solstice show features original and traditional songs and covers (think Jethro Tull, Kate Rusby, and more) which capture the beauty, joy and challenges of the darkest time of year. From foot-stomping to thought-provoking, silly to sacrosanct, the trio pays homage to new and old traditions as we approach the shortest day of the year, and celebrate the sun’s return.

Low Lily’s seamless vocal harmonies, instrumental mastery, and genre-crossing arrangements have earned them a devoted following and critical acclaim, garnering two #1 songs on international folk radio and winning two Independent Music Awards. Their poignant song Hope Lingers On (written by former bandmate Lissa Schneckenburger) has been performed by choirs around the world as an anthem for peace and justice.

Low Lily brandishes their formidable individual folk foundations within a collective sound that’s as smart with sense of pop phrasing and flair as it is roots-savvy.

"[Low Lily has] an incredible knack for putting a little pop twist on a traditional folk/Americana sound... it’s a blend that works beautifully."
