Round Song - last Chorus to end. The Lapland saga is a song in three parts, Round Song being the 3rd and last past

If you’ve got 8+ minutes, herein lies an epic rendering of one of Spencer’s most beloved songs Lapland paired with the simple backwoods anthem Round Song delivered in a resounding jam induced ending with the brilliance of Pappy’s inventive approach on full display.

My ode to some sweet friends who lived close to the land in a 200+ year old brick house before tragically perishing in a house fire. Recorded live at the Plainfield Opera House in Plainfield, Vermont by Eric Graham; video by Chad Finer, words & music by Spencer Lewis.

Spencer Lewis’ introspective, old-time, grass-tinged songs are driven by his inimitable cross-flat-picking guitar style and Biondo’s epic banjo riffs, which weave and climb in a swirl of melodic tonal modality. Additionally, Lewis’ fiddle / violin accompanies Biondo’s guitar and vocals as they re-interpret traditional roots music in their own freewheelin’ style. Eric Graham plays the fretless electric bass and adds another dimension with his fearless creativity. A melting pot of Americana and folk that rocks!

Spencer Lewis, Pappy Biondo, and Eric Graham continue their shared explorations performing music to celebrate the release of  Spencer’s latest album - Of Spirit and Friends, where Lewis has honored those close to him who have passed, along with his backwoods anthems and spiritual optimism. 

They will be performing music to celebrate the release of Lewis’ latest album, “Of Spirit & Friends,” a collection of ballads commemorating those close to him who have passed and backwoods anthems of life close to the land.
