City Folk is comprised of Keith Greeninger, Kimball Hurd and Roger Feuer. As the name implies it is “folk” in the traditional sense that it is music of and for the people with substantive and topical lyrics, yet with a contemporary urban edge. Their meticulous three-part harmony is underscored by a richly textured fabric of acoustic instrumentation; handcrafted material that speaks to the complexities of our modern landscape as well as the intimacy of an evening of friends and family around the kitchen table with candlelight, conversation, good food and wine.
The subtext of their music is a healthy and whole community. Passion, integrity, respect and gratitude and a “hands and voices-on” approach to making this world a healthier, happier and better place for all its inhabitants. City Folk is a positive experience and a positively uplifting one.
