Don "Banjo" Smith has been playing locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally for nearly the past 40 years.  Singing and accompanying himself of Banjo, mandolin, concertina, tin whistle, and tenor guitar, Don's collection of folk, Irish, Sea, and Novelty songs will have any audience singing along, clapping their hands, stomping their feet, and roaring with delight on every number!  (sometimes he even does love songs, and sad songs, just to throw the audience a curve!)  

Don is almost always accompanied by   one of the tri-state area's best acoustic guitarists, such as Mike Kobetitsch, Marty "Moonshine" McKerman, or Gary Oleyar(usually on Fiddle), or his son Ronan, who besides playing guitar is one of the best concertina players on the east coast!

Where I Do What I Do

Keepers of the Tradition

Keepers of the Tradition

Pubs, Clubs, Fairs, Festivals, Wakes, Weddings, and Baptisms(Really, I've done all of those things on numerous occasions! 

I've also played on Ferries, Tour Boats, Sail Boats, and River Boats, not to mention Trains, Libraries, and Lighthouses!

Looking to the Future

Keepers of the Tradition

Looking to the Future

Currently we are finishing up an album that we have been working on for several years.  It was almost done when Covid struck, and we haven't been back to the studio since them, though it is always on our minds. Still at the Callicoon Brewing company every Sunday for the near future, and the Callicoon Porchfest on Sept. 25th. 

Fall and wint

Fall and winter bookings are taking place now, keep your fingers crossed that we don't shut down again!
