"A folk classic"
New England singer-guitarist Bill Staines has a dry, unassuming voice and a gentle sense of humor that set off his subtle songcraft. Now in his fifth decade of performing, Staines tells heartfelt stories in song of places he's been and people he's met. Bill's songs have turned into folk standards, running through the repertoires of several generations of performers including Nanci Griffith (who relied for a long time on "Roseville Fair"), Jerry Jeff Walker, Grandpa Jones, Fairport Convention, Priscilla Herdman, Gordon Bok, Aiofe Clancy, and Peter, Paul and Mary. On top of that, he's a champion yodeler, a wit to match the standup world's best, and a musician with a gift for instantly memorable tunes that are liable to turn into singalongs at any time. In short, Bill Staines is a folk music classic.
