How fortuitous that Johanna and Adam met in Maine six years ago. They each bring a great deal of knowledge and experience to the partnership. Their love for farming is equally matched by their love for music. In the off-season, they travel throughout the country playing the fiddle and guitar as the duo Sassafras Stomp. Their music is high-energy and as described on their Sassafras Stomp website, it “builds a rich, dynamic contradance sound marked by driving foot percussion and sweet harmony vocals.” Their winter/early spring concert schedule that is posted on their Sassafras Stomp website illustrates the popular following that has developed for their music throughout the country. At some performances, Putnam Smith, a mandolin and banjo player, joins in to help out with the contradances and the Appalachian old-time music that is performed.
