US duo Friction Farm played a support slot at TwickFolk last year and delighted us with their songs of social commentary, humour, everyday life, local heroes and quirky observations. It’s a pleasure to welcome them back for a full of evening.

Aidan Quinn and Christine Stay are from California and New York, respectively. Their lyrically rich, harmony-driven songs have earned them spots at top festivals in the US, and they are winners of the South Florida Folk Festival songwriter competition. They have released a CD of songs inspired by books and, though they don’t plan another, they continue to use books as a source of inspiration. In order to help promote a love of reading and promote literacy among children under age 10, Friction Farm have also written and recorded a collection of songs inspired by children’s books.

“Infectiously hummable tunes” – New Times Magazine

“They were utterly charming. Their well-written songs cover a wide gamut and their delivery is spot on. They should be much better known” – Rich Warren, host of WFMT’s Folkstage radio show
