The Whompers at the Red Tavern in St. Regis Falls, NY - April 2006.
(09/21/07) The Whompers are harmonica wizard Chris Turner, monster fiddler Rachel Maloney, and anyone else who shows up on stage to jam with them. The couple splits their time between North Carolina and Rhode Island and makes their way to the North Country a couple of times each year. These two cuts were recorded at Paul Smith's College using just a couple of omni-directional mics hovering over the edge of the stage.
