Folk songs don’t just materialize out of thin air and they don’t grow on trees. They’re conceived and written by regular people to express their feelings, their experiences, and their culture. Although we tend to think of folk songs as records of a distant past, contemporary songwriters carry on this rich tradition. Nowhere is the tradition more alive than in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas and Missouri. Join us, as we present a small sampling of true contemporary Ozark original singer-songwriters creating brand new folk music for these modern times.

Every once in a while though, we manage to capture something that is uniquely extraordinary and unexpected. This performance is one of those special moments.
One of my favorite local groups, Foxfire, was performing their regular set on our stage when they invited a young girl they had heard singing on the local courthouse square to come up and close out their set. This unknown local girl was Carolina Mendoza. At the start of her song, I had no idea what to expect. By the end of her song, I was weeping.

This week, Ozark original, singer-songwriter, yodeler, multi-instrumentalist and one man band Nick Shoulders recorded live at Ozark Folk Center State Park in Mountain View, Arkansas. Also, interviews with this interesting musical multi-tasker.
Nick Shoulders is originally from Fayetteville, Arkansas but now divides his time between Fayetteville and New Orleans. Nick blends his unique brand of Arkansas honkabilly with Slim Whitman-style quivering country ballads. While simultaneously playing drums and guitar, Nick performs old-time country and honky tonk music that features whistling, yodeling, mouth trumpet, kazoo, and more. “Wielding a high yodel and whistle crafted from a lifetime chasing lizards through the Ozark hills, Nick combines his family's deep ties to southern traditional music with years singing to empty street corners to create this hybridized form of raucous country music: born of some dark holler and bred to be stomped into the New Orleans dance floors it now calls home. Since 2014, Nick has periodically traveled for months at a time, living out of his van-house with his trusty 130-pound dog Moose while busking as a one-man band all over the U.S.” - nickshoulders.bandcamp.com

This week, renowned California bluegrass and roots singer-songwriter, traditional dancer, and multi-instrumentalist Evie Ladin and her band recorded live at Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, interviews with Evie.
“The neo-trad kinetic-folk of the Evie Ladin Band is a mingling of the deep Appalachian sound of clawhammer banjo, guitar, bass and percussive dance, with contemporary storytelling and original, conversational interplay among the band members. Some of their adventurousness comes from early hip hop in the high school cafeteria, some from Evie’s early attraction to, and study of, the African roots in Appalachian music and dance. She created an African Studies In Dance major at Brown University, then studied dance in Eastern Nigeria on a Fulbright Fellowship. While myriad world and contemporary music influences permeate the band’s choices, they never reach too far, remaining seamless and true to the stories they tell.
Precisely because Evie was raised to know that music, dance and singing are what humans do together, she is an avid educator and community facilitator, at all ages and levels, in diverse communities. An electric and entertaining live performer, balancing performing with hands on teaching has proven extremely satisfying. Music is meant to move. Music is to do. In listening, live or on record, Evie keeps bringing you back to these basics, while savoring the real stuff of life.” - evieladin.com/bio
