Here is the blurb from http://nlfolk.com/folknight.php# :

After 40+ years, St. John�s-based Crooked Stovepipe continues its run as
the oldest bluegrass band in Canada. Over the years founding members
Neil Rosenberg and Ted Rowe have taken the band through four CDs plus a children�s recording with Colleen Power. Their third CD, "Just In Case",
was voted "Bluegrass Recording of the Year" by the ECMA, and MusicNL
named Power "Female Vocalist of the Year" for her collaboration with the
band.

They have played often on radio and television, and appeared at numerous concerts and festivals around the province. The band has also performed
in Nova Scotia, PEI, Ontario, and Alberta. Neil and Ted were founding
members of the Bluegrass and Old-Time Country Music Society of
Newfoundland and Labrador and Crooked Stovepipe has been featured
regularly at its annual jamboree.

Ted�s son Dave Rowe, Matt Hender and Carole Bestvater round out the band
for 2015.

Next week (December 16) the headliners will be local
Greek folk/etc. band The Forgotten Bouzouki.
