Quarter Horse has caught the attention of audiences nationwide with their complex harmonies and solid grooves rooted

in the americana folk-rock tradition, they’ve earned the respect of music a� cionados both young and old. � ey are honing their cra� and collectively moving to be one of the Northeast folk scene’s most revered tal-

ents. � is is their fourth time playing Benner’s Farm!

Travis Mckeveny & the Famous Dr. Scanlon Band, Travis is a Long Island-based singer-songwriter. His debut album, Last Year’s Leaves (2012), met with critical acclaim, garnering him comparisons to John Prine and Tom Waits. McKeveny’s sophomore eff ort, October Porches and Second Hand Fears (2015) - produced by The Infamous Stringdusters’ Andy Falco -

was a major leap forward, sonically and lyrically. McKeveny again joined forces with Falco to write “1901: A Canyon Odyssey,”

Jonathan Preddice, is principle songwriter, singer, guitarist and cellist for one of Long Island’s popular bands, Miles To Dayton. Jonathan Preddice’s new project is a collection of original

Americana songs under his own name, breaking the bound-aries between rock, folk, pop and classical. For Fiddle and Folk, Jon will be playing acoustic guitar, tenor guitar, cello and vocals, and will be joined by Brian Chabza on � ddle.

Maria Fairchild & Bill Ayasse: Maria is one of those rare performers who really inhabits the stage. She is a splendid instrumental-

ist — in particular she is a virtuoso clawhammer banjo player and a great singer. Authentic Quebecois songs and old time

banjo music are tied together by Maria’s sly and engaging wit. Bill Ayasse, violin, backing vocals, will be playing with her.

Mick Hargreaves with Pezte Mancini & Brian Moritz Since the end of 2014, Mick Hargreaves has been hard at work operating the Lantern Sound Recording Rig (LSRR) inside a sprawling hundred-year-old farmhouse located in the pine barrens of Long Island NY,

where he records, rehearses, and holds house concerts. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Mick embarked on what he calls “the last,

or maybe next to last, � nal remodeling” of the Lantern Sound Record-

CB (Claudia) Jacobs and Dr. Dan Dr. Dan come together for some songs from the Black Book Project. Claudia has been a � xture on the Northeast music scene, sharing her soulful and bluesy, self-re� ective and upli� ing songs, perform-ing solo or with others. Dr. Dan has been Playing wlith Claudia for many years adding his keyboard skills and

distinctive voice to her vocals.

Bob Westcott will emcee and entertain between sets with stories and songs.

Chris Smither If you like the blues, this artist is for you!Wise words pour forth from Chris Smither – observations and aphorisms, similes and internal rhymes, run-on sentences and concise quips, all in a conversational � ow. � e careful construction of Smither’s lyrics is a thing of beauty and the bedrock of his bluesy folk music. Smither is an excellent acoustic guitarist and � rst-rate foot-

stomper. Associated Press � e never-precious lyrics make for elegantly stripped-down adages, steeped in the wisdom, hardships, joy and disappointments of real life……blending self-deprecating humor with rich kernels of poignant, o� en piercingly

honest emotion. San Francisco Chronicle:
