Jay Ungar & Molly Mason
listen:
  Jay Ungar and Molly Mason have come to define traditional fiddle and dance music. The husband-and-wife duo are best known for their Grammy-winning song, "Ashokan Farewell", which was featured prominently in Ken Burns' documentary, "The Civil War". Their music ranges from country swing to New England Contra dance to Appalachian Waltzes. They're heading to Brownfield Maine to perform at the new Stone Mountain Arts Center this Friday. Tonight they join us in the Front Porch studio to play some tunes and give us their take on today's folk scene.

"Ashokan Farewell" has become our family theme in good times and bad. Its bittersweet melody sings to us here in central New Hampshire, blending the voices of the fields, lakes, mountains, and the those gone before us as we progress through our everyday lives.
Thank you for giving us this timeless song.
