Anna Mae Mitchell & Rising Tide

Anna Mae Mitchell & Rising Tide

We're a six-piece bluegrass-ish band from Bangor, Maine, and we love playing music for the good folks who want to hear it! We play lots of originals, written by band members and friends of the band, plus fresh arrangements of a few 'grass & gospel favorites, and a surprise cover tune thrown in on occasion, to keep you on your toes. Sounds a little crazy, but we sure do have fun! We'd love for you to have fun with us, so come out and see us sometime!

Jim Gallant

Jim Gallant

The art of folk guitar is amongst the most beautiful and challenging styles in modern music and New Gloucester's Jim Gallant ranks among some of the finest tunesmith's in the Northeast. His unique, eloquent blending of New Age, classical, Celtic and Kottke-esque fingerpicking has earned him stage time alongside such greats as Taj Mahal, Doc Watson and The New Grass Revival in addition to the inclusion of his music on a Christmas album for LL Bean. His latest LP, River Watch, is a lovely continuation of Gallant's proficiency in his art.

 






The Muellers

The MuellersWhile Curt Mueller has been playing banjo back as far as anyone can remember, the band gradually came together as the children learned to play various stringed instruments. One day Curt brought home a doghouse bass as a gift for Karen and a bluegrass band was born. The band has a devoted and rapidly expanding following, and creates a wake of excitement at every performance venue, large or small. The Muellers have developed a real reputation for putting a lot of musical bang into what they love to do, right down to the youngest Mueller, George, who began performing at the ripe old age of eighteen months!

Traditional bluegrass favorites and gospel songs are a mainstay of their performances, but as the children's musical talents and tastes develop, a bent for contemporary bluegrass is beginning to show. You can expect an exciting mix of music that really showcases the young talent, both with their instruments and harmony singing with that special family blend.
