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.
from "Birches" by Robert Frost |

| Bill Jubett & April Jubett are The Birch Benders. With Bill on banjo or fiddle and April on guitar, together they sing that old-time duet harmony from back in the days of the Monroe Brothers. You'll find them playing all over New England with a fine selection of talented musicians. | |

| Check out our current project, HOT MUSTARD, a double-banjo bluegrass band born out of a grant from the New Hampshire Council on the Arts. Bill & April join forces with Bruce & Kelly Stockwell from Putney, VT. You can read an article on a recent performance here | |
