The 6th Ever Los Angeles Old Time Social kicked off this year at HM157 (shout out to Angel and Brad of the Hyperion Tavern!), our lovely victorian hosts in Lincoln Heights of the squarevolution for over a year. A perfect, albeit chilly backyard concert with a solo mostly banjo performance by Walter Spencer. He debuted a new song for a Virginia fiddler that was epic and lovely. Next was duo, The Driftwood Singers, singing Carter Family songs and other oldies switching off between double guitars and guitar/autoharp with beautiful harmonies. Last, Mt. Baldy and LA-area old time stringband, The Modal Tease, with a tight set of modal fiddle tunes. A great evening of music to start the festival off right.
