SHAWN MAGEE is a masterful lyricist with deep musical roots. He was known as a part of the Barbary Ghosts, a well known sea chantey singing band from the west coast. Here in Brattleboro, Shawn has been a prolific songwriter, reflecting on our times.
PETER SIEGEL (www.petersiegel.com, www.thegaslighttinkers.com) cut his teeth working with folks like Pete Seeger, Jay Unger and Molly Mason, Judy Collins, Dar Williams, Utah Phillips, Noel Paul Stookey of Peter Paul and Mary, and was a bandmate of bluegrass powerhouse Michael Daves in the 90’s “New Old Time” band Underbelly which the Berkshire Eagle called “a supergroup of New England talent”. He contributed and recorded on the Grammy award winning Pete Seeger album “Tomorrow’s Children”. His other credits include publication in Sing Out! magazine and the fiddle tune compilation, The Portland Collection, as well as appearances on the nationally syndicated Etown.
