Wyndham Baird (Trio)
“think most of the time songs appear in my repertoire because they touch on and help illuminate whatever I’m dealing with in my life at the time. In the case of “Last Train From Poor Valley”, this quote from Rich Roll pretty much sums it up:
“People change when the pain of their circumstances exceeds the fear of finally doing something different.”
- Wyndham Baird” BandCamp

Blue Ridge Betty (full band)
“This album captures a period of time filled with uncertainty, longing, and hope. After Hurricane Helene ravaged our community in Western NC, feelings that I never confronted before came bubbling to the surface. I coped by writing songs. I stopped caring how my musical ideas or words might be judged.
So I shared these songs with my friends, who encouraged me and lent me their creative ideas, time, and musicianship.
I have endless love and gratitude for everyone involved.
They're our songs now! I'm so proud of what we made.
~Lindsey”

Orval Day
The Orval legend began almost 1,000 years ago, when a princess accidentally dropped her ring into a spring and a trout returned it. It continues now, with a day to reflect on and enjoy this amazing Trappist ale.
On Orval Day, devotees of Orval Trappist Ale – and some folks who maybe have not tried it yet – convene to celebrate one of the world’s unique and highly-respected beers. The next Orval Day is set for Saturday March 21, 2026. #OrvalDay
