SARANAC LAKE – Described by Folk Alley radio as “some of the most jubilant and danceable indie roots music this side of the Carolinas,” and hailed by The New York Times as “boisterously youthful yet deftly sentimental,” Parsonsfield will bring its five-piece harmonies and indie-folk style to BluSeed Studios at 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 21.

Hailing from western Massachusetts, Parsonsfield draws their name from the rural Maine town that’s home to the Great North Sound Society, the farmhouse-turned-recording-studio of Josh Ritter keyboardist/producer Sam Kassirer.

It was there that they cut their debut, “Poor Old Shine,’ which established them as a roots force to be reckoned with. The band’s latest, “‘Blooming Through The Black,” comes hot off a six-month stint in Toronto, Canada, performing its critically acclaimed original songs for the musical “The Heart Of Robin Hood.

Tickets are $18 for general admission or $15 for BluSeed members.
