The Possum Playboys are keeping alive and vibrant the tradition of bands that once traveled the back-roads of Appalachia and America, playing music that pleased and satisfied the eternal human longing for dance and fun.

Featuring fiddle and “Cajun” accordion, the Playboys play a lively mix of “jam band” music from “swamp to swing”, “early rock to be-bop”---- that sets feet tapping, hips swinging, and people singing! While the musical traditions may be familiar, the songs and interpretations are fresh and new!!   

The Playboys are 30-year veteran singer/songwriter Ron Short on vocals, accordion, slide guitar, banjo, mandolin and fiddle; Aaron Davis on guitar and vocals;  Lisa “Pisa” Davis ( the “Blossum” of the group”) on rubboard, vocals and percussion; Ben Mays on bass.       

For an evening of “Possum Wisdom”, dancing, original music and just plain fun, you’re gonna love The Possum Playboys!
