ABOUT

The Shantytowners play original material as well as standard folk, country, Americana, and roots covers.

This is a collective of musicians that rehearses on a regular basis (generally once a week at a members studio) and gigs out quarterly. Members, once established within our group, are invited to play out at these performances.

As a member you become an equal contributor to the group. The set list is in a "Round" format. The lead for the song will have the members backing him/her up and then it's on to the next lead and the next song and so on.
