We are a family band, rooted in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains. We play a style all our own, an acoustic genre of Americana, bluegrass and folk music with a refreshing sound. We compose a lot of the songs we perform, which tell the stories of our lives in the northern mountains of the Adirondacks. Even though our members change, some stay and some go, we are still a family band, have a sound unique to us, and believe that you will enjoy the sound we produce.

Bob Stump singer songwriter on guitar is an Americana musician raised in the suburbs of NYC. Although surrounded by urban rock music influences, Bob was always intrigued by the sounds of folk music. The artist resonated with the sounds of folk artists and began a musical career inspired by them. The troubadour performs solo and with his band at fairs, festivals, concerts, clubs and live shows. In his early days he won a few flatpick guitar contests and continues to burn it up on stage.
Recently, the artist has been gaining a lot of exposure and moving up the musical ladder. A few years back his song, “The Rain Came Down,” won first place for the instrumental category in The New England Song Contest. Known for his authentic sound, over the years Bob has built a trade performing in some of the most renowned indy music venues in the Northeast and beyond. Some years performing well over one hundred events. In the past he has performed with John McEuen of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, has performed and recorded with the late great Bill Keith. Recently in 2024 he opened the show for the legendary folk & bluegrass artist Tim Obrien. New for 2025 the artist is introducing his Americana Medicine Show.
You can expect a great line up of hot players performing roots music from the Mississippi Delta to the hills of Kentucky and beyond. The artist says “some things are just meant to be, with a name like Stump, roots music is in my blood”.
