Atwater-Donnelly

Atwater-Donnelly is an American folk music group from Rhode Island consisting of Aubrey Atwater, Elwood Donnelly, and occasionally other musicians and dancers.

They have toured throughout the United States and internationally, playing guitar, banjo, Appalachian dulcimer, tin whistle, limberjack, and other instruments.

Atwater and Donnelly met as volunteers at the Stone Soup Coffeehouse in Rhode Island in early 1987, and started playing together a few months later.

[2] Their performances have been featured on All Songs Considered[3] and Fiona Ritchie's The Thistle & Shamrock on public radio.

They were one of the earlier musical groups to be on the web, after one of their fans worked with Atwater to put a site up in 1995.
