Folk Music Session Charlotte Folk Society

Charlotte Folk Society musicians Tom Walsh (fiddle), Martha Kiker (autoharp & banjo), and Phil Lesser (banjo, guitar & hammered dulcimer) perform traditional string-band music.  Highly accomplished, they play it all - from beautiful waltzes to lively tunes that set your hands to clapping and your feet to dancing!  Catch them Saturday mornings, playing with the group "Local Tomatoes" at the Mecklenburg County Farmers Market on Harding Place.  The Charlotte Folk Society:  Celebrating 25 Years, 1982-2007.  Visit www.folksociety.org.
