  1. A bit of a stretch, but do I know anyone who's familiar with traditional Irish, English, and/or old-time folk tunes? Trying to find the name of a few tunes that I still can't figure out even though I know I've heard them a million times before at old-time jams and contra dances and what not. I've been scouring @thesession with no luck!

    The ones labeled "Tune 4", and "Tune 6" are still eluding me. Both are a medley so if you skip to half way through or so it will change and I'm trying to figure out both tunes (the second tune in "Tune 6" is "Waiting for Nancy" by Curt Bouterse, but the other three I'm unsure about).

  6. 🐔 The Chicken Ruckus spielen Oldtime- und Folk aus Leib und Seele. Ihre Songs und Tunes wurzeln im Südosten der USA, wo sich zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts irisches und englisches Liedgut mit dem afroamerikanischen Blues vermischte. Begleitet von Banjo, Mandoline, Fiddle und Bassgitarre singen The Chicken Ruckus von den kühlen Bergen und den wilden Küsten, von der Arbeit am Gleis und in den Kohlenminen, über die Liebe, das Leben, den Tod und was auch immer danach kommen mag.

    Jeder Auftritt von The Chicken Ruckus ist zugleich roh und wohlklingend, wird mit Leidenschaft vorgetragen und berührt garantiert jedes Publikum tief im Inneren, wenn es nicht vorher von den stampfenden Rhythmen und den knackigen Basslinien mitgerissen und davongetragen wird.

    Am Freitag, 4. September an den Solothurner Musiktagen!

  11. How did I miss this!? In April of 2025 Rhiannon Giddens reunited with her former Carolina Chocolate Drops bandmate Justin Robinson to release “What Did the Blackbird Say to the Crow.” It's an album of old-time and string band music filled with traditional Appalachian and North Carolina tunes. Fantastic and a must-hear for #bleugrass, #OldTime, #fiddle, #banjo, and #Americana music fans.

  17. Alright, last time I asked for #music recommendations @rubbel came in with some bangers--so I'm going back to the well to find out what else is out there on the fediverse.

    What #bands are all the cool #adhd kids listening to on repeat? Bonus points for #punk #oldtime #progressive bands. I am looking for EARWORMS - those songs that make your brain happy when you play them on loop until you never want to hear them again.

    Also looking for any indie bands I can support OUTSIDE major streaming apps (direct purchase / download).

  18. 4 days of non stop morning-to-very-late-night jamming is hard on fingers!
    Who knew!
