Homespun Songs of Stephen Foster

July 4, 1826: the day America celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams died, and in Lawrenceville, Pennsylvania - Stephen Foster was born.

The latest release in the Homespun Songs series chronicles America’s first pop star - Stephen Foster. While many may recognize a few of his most popular tunes - “Oh! Suzannah” and “Camptown Races” (to name a few) - his musical legacy is larger than most think.

“Since Mr. Foster’s music touched the common folk, it was my intention to arrange and perform these tunes in the simple, straight-forward way 19th century string bands would have played them.” - Bobby Horton
