Ash Creek at the Maplewood Music Festival
2025-09-13 16:30 - 18:00 | OR
Ash Creek explores the frontiers between bluegrass, folk, and traditional country music. We work hard to find songs that respect those traditions, but aren’t the same ol’ stuff. We like a good story, and a tune that veers where you don’t expect it, without giving you a case of whiplash. And we try to stay right in the pocket of what we’re good at, which is good, solid acoustic music, meant to be listened to.
Ash Creek will be set up at the end of the SW Jan Tree Court cul-de-sac in SW Portland Maplewood neighborhood.

CORRAL CREEK has been described as hitting the stage like pigs out of a bog, must be the songs and laughter we share. Together 21 years and counting, Corral Creek has been asked to return to the same venues year after year to share songs and stories. Nothing like folks clapping and singing along to some Folk, Gospel or a Bluegrass tune. Corral Creek knows that folks, no matter where, a winery, Bluegrass festival, city festival, church service or house concert just enjoy a family show. Noted for writing/singing some goofy tunes, Ron plays the guitar and tells the jokes. Pam, who the band refers to as their Chick Lead singer, adds the mandolin work and sings like a bird. Ed fills in the banjo part, sings leads and harmony. Carl, not to be missed, has played the fiddle since he was 3 and sings to. Paul, keeps us all in time on the big bass fiddle and sings some great vocals.
