Bearfoot -- Cuyahoga Valley Heritage Series May 2, 2009

Telluride band contest winner Bearfoot, features twin fiddles, fast-picking mandolin and guitar, upright bass, and beautiful harmony vocals. Their fresh approach to bluegrass and acoustic music ranges from evocative three-part harmonies, to original songs and bluesy covers of contemporary tunes. Bearfoot's exuberant stage presence elicits an appeal that bridges generations. Bearfoot’s music nods to the wilds of their native Alaska, conjuring images of rural string-band musicians. But like most restless frontiersman, Bearfoot doesn’t stop there. In its simple elegance, their music elevates the quintet to the top of a cultural mountain where they overlook the past, present, and future of Americana music.
