Ravensfire


For years, several of our former students played Irish folk music. They were well known throughout Bluff County as the Irish Minstrels.  Still, time marches on and we were so very pleased to see them opening with a new group recently in Rochester, Minnesota. The groups’ new name is Ravensfire. They warmed up St. Joe’s coffee shop before a packed audience last weekend. On the right, in the picture, are Melissa and Larry Schmidt.  Cheering them on, to the right, are the Troutbirders sitting next to friend Loretta on their left   Coffee cups in hand, what fun it was on a chilly Bluff Country night!

  2. I love folk music. That coffee house brings back fond memories of the nights I spent listening to good folk music in the 60's and 70's.

  4. There's a fair bit of Celtic music and fiddling hanging on in this region.
