from 78 RPM records of artists of the 1925-41 "Golden Age" of country music, as

material.
The members of Waking Up Tillie are dedicated old-time musicians and singers,

old-time feel to contemporary and original material. They have performed and
taught at such festival, concert, and dance venues as the Augusta Heritage
Center, Appalachian String Band Festival (Clifftop), Mountain Laurel Autoharp
Gathering, Clarion Folk College, New England Folk Festival, the Philadelphia
Folk Festival, WPAQ's "Merry-Go-Round," and many other places. Members of Waking
Up Tillie appear on various CDs and have recorded a CD "Down in the Old Home
Town" for the Chubby Dragon label, scheduled for release spring 2005.
