DESCRIPTION:
This program features one of our finest singer/storytellers, and beloved traveling minstrels, Bill Staines.

Hailing form New Hampshire, Bill has put millions of miles under his tires since giving up his job as a Sears deliveryman to pursue music full time in the 1960's

As I remember, we had a late night imbibing and telling tall tales to each other before we recorded this program. No matter, we were both veterans of such evenings and it is an enjoyable show to watch!

Bill continues to put many miles on his vehicle, performing throughout the U.S. Many of his songs have become folk classics, recorded by dozens of artists.

The "River City Folk" television program was produced in 1994-95 by Tom May, the University of Nebraska at Omaha, and Branson, Missouri's Americana Cable Network.
It was shown throughout the U.S. on cable networks and on PBS TV in Nebraska.

The radio broadcast of "River City Folk" was the inspiration for the television broadcast , and continues today, now in its 28th year. Check local listings for times, or

Tom May also performs regularly and tours, as well as producing the national "River City Folk"
radio broadcast and the annual "Winterfolk" concert in Portland, Oregon.
