Southern Sky
Playing original and reconditioned acoustic music spanning Folk, Country, Rock, Bluegrass and perhaps another genre or two, Southern Sky brings more than 100 years of collective music experience to the stage. The band came together with the notion it would build a repertoire of songs from obscure artists, obscure songs from popular artists and unusual arrangements of more popular songs, along with original material.
