I was born in Massachusetts West Virginia, I did go There I met, a fair young maiden and her name, I did well know Oh her hair was dark and curly and her lips were ruby red upon her breast she wore green flowers were I longed to lay my head I don't want your greenback dollar I don't want your watch and chain All I want, is your heart darling say you'll see me, one day again The ocean's deep and I can't wade it and I have no wings to fly I'll just get me a green eye'd boatman fore to roll me oer' the tide I'll go back to West Virginia Massachusetts, ain't my home I'll go back to West Virginia leave them northern yankees alone

about

An electric introduction and perspective on Appalachian Folk Music (aka Old Time).

The objective was to combine both old instrumentation (acoustic banjo) with new instrumentation (solid body electric banjo) and spoken word sections to convey a sense of the culture and historical presentation of folk music within Appalachia while pointing towards how through modernity (and electric instruments) the tone of folk music changes with time to reflect ever changing sensibilities of the people who are alive and playing the music today.
