Old Sap is at least a bearded man with a banjo. At most, he’s an old rocking chair creaking on a summer porch, the voice of a pine tree while​ ​the surrounding Maples lose their rusty leaves. Fusing Folk, Celtic Traditional, Americana, Old Time Blues, and drawing influence from contemporary songwriters such as The Avett Brothers, Bon Iver, Feist, and Tom Waits, Old Sap’s songs tell stories of loss, of finding joy in adventure and uncertainty, of learning to bear life’s ugliness with grace, of bowing humbly to the mystery at the center of all things, singing praise to our shared existence on this planet.

While he is normally based in Asheville, North Carolina, once every summer he makes a trip back to where his musical roots began to grow, Big Fork, Montana. And on Tuesday, July 23rd we are lucky enough to host a very special performance by Old Sap right here at KBC!
