LIVE MUSIC: Lansing's The Bard Owls

WKAR/Anthony Cepak

For today's live music, Current State was joined by the Bard Owls, an old-time folk group based in Lansing. The ensemble discussed their musical inspirations, the Bard Owls group dynamic, and more.

Hear Linnea Jimison and Meredith Brown on fiddle, Chris Foster on mandolin and bouzouki, and Kirk Mason on the washtub bass. The Bard Owls perform tonight at Mac's Bar.
