Down Trodden String Band
Our music
We play a range of acoustic music from the American tradition - old time, traditional country, country blues - even the odd skiffle number once we get warmed up! These three mp3 give a good idea of range of styles we cover (right click to save to your hard drive)
| Cripple Creek/Old Joe Clark | A couple of old favourites, typical of the tunes we play for Well Heeled and also for ceilidhs. |
| Waterbound | A song from the Galax area of Virginia. Attributed to Fields Ward, who recorded it in the 1920's and 30's it is probably a reworking of various traditional songs. |
| Your Cheatin Heart | Hank Williams' country standard. |
