Strung Together: A Maine String Band Weekend

Strung Together is a unique three-day experience that includes community jam sessions, contradances, story-telling, and workshops. Strung Together is focused on various forms of Maine folk music—music brought to Maine by seafarers, lumberjacks, travelers—and homesteaders that we continue to play and love here in Maine. Come prepared to jam and fall in love with the music of Maine!
Experienced Maine folk music players—including players of Bluegrass, Old-Time, Irish, Quebecois, and Cape Breton music—and square dancers gather at Strung Together, providing opportunities for new to advanced players to participate in Maine’s rich musical heritage. Players of all instruments and levels are welcome!
Strung Together is held at one of the most beautiful places on the planet—the award-winning Searsport Shores Campground in Searsport, Maine! There is no better place to celebrate and play Maine folk music than where the woods meet the sea at Searsport Shores Campground.
Proceeds will be used for musician scholarships and to help fund the instrument lending project at the Searsport Carver Memorial Library.
