When guitar and mandolin player Dick Stock met banjo player Moe Safford at a jam session in the beautiful Helderberg Mountains in Upstate New York, they shared a common interest in the many variations of bluegrass music especially the hard driving variety.
The Hilltown Ramblers were formed and started playing regularly in 1993, and for over 30 plus years the band has played hundreds of times in venues including state and local parks, county fairs, and numerous clubs, breweries, cafes, and coffeehouses.
Dick Stock and Moe Safford continue to lead the Hilltown Ramblers to this day and are joined by their long time guitarist “Smilin’” Jim Selkirk. Most recently they have been joined by the extraordinary Tom White on the fiddle and the phenomenal Gene Lemme on the upright bass.
The Hilltown Ramblers have released a new album “Clear Mountains", a homage to their origins in the Helderbergs, now available on all the major streaming services. For more on The Hilltown Ramblers visit their website www.hilltownramblers.com
