Lawrence Older of Middle Grove, NY

A machinist and woodsman, Lawrence Older was born in Middle Grove, New York, a town in the southern Adirondacks. Having learned most of his songs from his parents, his repertoire is part of a family tradition with roots as far back as the early 19th Century. Featuring several songs, fiddle tunes, and ballads (including five Child ballads), this record demonstrates the richness of mountain music north of Appalachia.
