ABOUT US
We are a group of amateur musicians who live along the Pacific Coast near the Oregon-Calfornia border that meets every week to play Old Time music mixed with a little Celtic, a little Bluegrass, a little Easern European, and a lot of fun.
We rarely perform, but when we do, we are the Rowdy Creek String Band. The webpage name of Younkers Creek refers to the private residence situated above the creek where the group first convened.
Please Note: While many of us belong to the Old Time Fiddlers the purpose of our group is to become proficient at playing a set number of tunes. While we will play other tunes that guests may request, please keep in mind that this is a rehearsal and not an Old Time Fiddler-style jam session.
And it goes without saying that we are grateful to the Chetco Community Library for allowing us to use their facilities every week.
Why not join us?
Rehearsals are held every Thursday, 10-12 am at the Chetco Community Library in Brookings and are open to anyone with a suitable string-band instrument.
Bring along your tablet so you can access all our tunes using the library's open wifi.
The focus of our rehearsals is on playing a few tunes well instead of many tunes poorly.
Those who wish to introduce a new tune are expected to be able to play it well before introducing it to the group AND need to bring a sufficient number of photocopies to share with the group.
A double asterisk indicates an audio link is available.
ALPHABETICAL LISTING OF ALL TUNES
Warning: This listing also includes nearly all the tunes we may have played over the years, but no longer do on a regular basis. It also includes tunes we have thought we might play someday, but have yet to do so.
