"Vail Public Library hosted Raggedy Edge ... and they were phenomenal! Bob and
Lynn were lively, engaging and oh so talented. We look forward to hosting them
again next year!"
Lori Ann Barnes, Town Librarian, Vail Library, Vail, CO

About Raggedy Edge
Booking ~ Nice Comments ~ Places We've Played


WHAT KIND OF MUSIC DO WE PLAY?: Our music jumps through the genres, from pop,
folk, rock, jazz to blues, country, and American Standards. From the 1930s and
'40s, through the '60s and '70s, bit of '80s and '90s, and a touch of the 2000s
and 2010s.

ORIGINALS: Most of our original music is from the 2010s and 2020s, and leans
more toward soft rock, with strong influences of blues, country, pop, and jazz
elements.

We have four CDs of original songs together, plus two solo collections. You can
order them through Bandcamp, which also allows you to download the digital files
while you await the CDs. Or, if you want, you can simply stream the whole lot
for free! Most of our music is on Spotify, Apple, and other online deities, as
well.

We've also collected songs according to genre and made them available as
downloads at Bandcamp. These are very nice if you're in the mood for a certain
mood:

FOLK-ROCK
BLUES AND SMOOTH JAZZ
AMERICANA-COUNTRY
SOFT ROCK

Add in a few American Standards from our Littlest Big Band collection, and
you'll find our live shows filled with family-friendly fun, unique harmonies,
adequate guitar playing, and snappy repartee. Music lovers looking for positive,
upbeat messages will find that and much more in a Raggedy Edge performance.

TOURS
One of the joys of having music to share is the ability to travel the country
doing just that. Below is the history of tours we've made. How do we do it? The
"we" in this case is our administrator of destinations and venues, developer of
set lists and wardrobes, player of guitar and mandolin, and the beautiful
dreamer and singer of crystal clear melodies and lush harmonies: Lynn. If you'd
like to have us play for your event, she is the one to call!

The term “raggedy edge” came from a science fiction movie about space travelers
making a living on the fringes of the universe—what they called “the raggedy
edge.” In a way, we’re like those space travelers, except we’re making our
living on the planet Earth, playing our kind of music on the fringes of the
music industry. That’s our “Raggedy Edge.”
