Ben Traverse @ Allegan District Library

Michigan folksinger and Earthwork Music artist Ben Traverse is bringing their Irish songs to the library- just in time for St. Paddy's day! Ben Traverse commands a wide array of instruments in their mission to bring the finest traditional folk music into the 21st century. Drawing from the rich history of American folk, Celtic, maritime, and Appalachian traditions, they travel Michigan and beyond telling stories and truths as old as the hills.

“Ben is the modern day Pete Seeger. He’s a musical archeologist who writes songs that sound like they’re from a hundred years ago.” -The Accidentals
“As a musician, Traverse is rooted in the past, forward thinking, and fully present. His foundation is solid and he cares deeply about music and people” -Seth Bernard
