This little video is aimed at much younger crowd than we typically get at a house concert (Daisy writes children's books), but it springs straight from the hearts of a couple of talented and entertaining performers who are as warm as a fire in the stove, as cozy as your favorite rocking-chair, and as unpretentiously down-to-earth as two human beings can be. You'll love 'em!
Often sailing to their audiences on their schooner Redbird, Daisy Nell & Captain Stan deliver traditional and contemporary folk music. Hailing from the shipbuilding town of Essex, MA, Daisy Nell (banjo and guitar) and Stan Collinson (guitar and harmonica) transport you to their orbit of schooners and shoreside shenanigans.
Their repertoire varies from folk standards to original compositions, all with the vocal blend that comes from twenty years of making music together. Daisy has long been associated with school programs and the Gloucester Schooner Festival, and is the author of several children's books. Stan and Daisy's latest CD, Snow on the Roof was recorded in 2016 with their band, Crabgrass.
