“It is our intention to play the old fiddle tunes not as museum pieces but as vibrant music pulsing with joy and friendship. For it is by making this music our own that it will continue to live.

-Howard Rains

RED HERRING STRINGBAND

 

We play old-time fiddle music; reels,

waltzes, polkas, and schottisches, lively

tunes from the back porches, front parlors,

and Saturday barn dances of an earlier era.

​

We play for square dances, tea parties,

barn-raisings, art openings, farmers' markets,

and pretty much anywhere good times are

to be found.
