Northern Roots Americana: Tim Eriksen Trio & Red Heart the Ticker

Northern Roots Americana:
Tim Eriksen Trio & Red Heart the Ticker

Tim Eriksen is acclaimed for transforming American tradition with his startling interpretations of old ballads, love songs, shape-note gospel and dance tunes from New England and Southern Appalachia. He combines hair-raising vocals with inventive accompaniment on banjo, fiddle, guitar and bajo sexto a twelve string Mexican acoustic bass creating a distinctive hardcore Americana sound that ranges from the bare bones of solo unaccompanied singing, through the stripped-down voice and bajo sexto, to the lush, multi-layered arrangements of northern roots American music.

"one of the best voices in music" T Bone Burnett

Red Heart the Ticker is the musical collaboration of our neighbors, Robin MacArthur and Tyler Gibbons, a husband and wife duo from Marlboro, Vermont. Playing a beautiful mix of ethereal Americana and folk, the music of Red Heart the Ticker is thick with the poetry of places. Robin and Tyler channel the landscape of the North woods.
