BRUNSWICK —The Mutineers will bring its traditional folk, blues and old-time country music to Frontier Cafe on Friday, Nov. 9, at a concert benefiting the Good Shepherd Food Bank in Auburn.
Joining the band from Portland on-stage will be singer-songwriter Ted DeMille and multi-instrumentalist Bobby St. Pierre, who have been performing for some 20 years. They began playing together as part of North Star in 1994, then as half of Bits and Pieces. Their music is a down-to-earth blend of bluegrass instrumentation, original music mixed with old favorites.
The Mutineers, which has performed statewide since 2003, has recorded three albums, the most recent, “Drover’s Bones,” released on Oct. 5. Two songs from that CD — Stuart MacDonald’s “Schoolhouse Fire” and Jeff Trippe’s “Maiden’s Cliff” — were selected as finalists at this year’s New England Songwriting Contest held in July at the Ossippee Valley Music Festival in Hiram. Last year, “Whiskey Road” from the band’s 2008 album, “Coal Creek,” was a finalist.
Playing bass for
are Darren Finnegan and Leonard Krill, respected musicians from the Portland area.
The concert will be at 7 p.m. at the cafe in Fort Andross Mill. Donations: $7 in advance/$10 day of show. Call 725?5222.
