I'd like to go by climbing a birch tree, And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more, But dipped its top and set me down again. That would be good both going and coming back. One could do worse than be a swinger of birches.

With wild-eyed energy and a penchant for improvisation, the band performs a varied repertoire of American roots music. Come out and hear corn husk voices combine in crisp harmonies. Hear banjos, fiddles, and mandolins spring to the end of breakdowns, and listen to a group that loves to pick. From New Hampshire to all over New England and beyond, invite The Birch Benders to play your party, pub, wedding, festival stage, or other celebration.
