Splitting time between Maine and Montana, Sassafras Stomp is a high-energy folk group that plays a wide variety of events, from dances to weddings, from workshops to concerts. Johanna Davis leads the charge, her skills on fiddle, and sometimes banjo, helping create the band's unique, lively sound. Stamping his feet in syncopated patterns is Adam Nordell, the voice of Sassafras stomp. His talents extend to the strings as well, playing guitar and banjo intermittently. When they aren't encouraging group dances via music, Adam and Johanna run a small, certified organic vegetable farm on the Sandy River in Western Maine.
