On February 4, 2017, the Low Tide Drifters, of Eugene, Oregon, will present an afternoon of folk music at the Canby Public Library. With a host of traditional instruments, sing-along choruses, and carefully crafted lyrics, the Low Tide Drifters create original roots-based songs that reflect the struggles and stories of everyday people in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Influenced by Woody Guthrie, Utah Phillips, Harry Stamper, Hazel Dickens, and other socially conscious songwriters of all musical genres, they bring a respect for the past and a concern for the future to their particular brand of “underdog folk music.”
