The Broken String Band

About the artist

Hailing from the Classic City - Athens, GA - the Broken String Band is re-defining what it means to play folk music. With a live performance that combines alluring, hard-hitting lyricism and iconic harmonies with thrashing banjo, stand-up bass, fiddle, drums, and the occasional accordion or flute, the Broken String Band encapsulates the feel-good vibe of acoustic jamming with a dash of classical culture thrown in for good measure. Though the group fits the appearance of a traditional folk act as they take the stage
