Keith & Joan Pitzer blend rich vocal harmonies with skillful acoustic guitar and bass, embellished with harmonica or pennywhistle. Keith's rich baritone evokes a contemporary Appalachian Stan Rogers singing over some fine and fancy flatpicked guitar, while Joan's sweet alto draws from the dulcet tones of fair Ireland as much as their surroundings. While their own West Virginia-inspired originals are always a highlight, the couple easily traverses a wide range of traditional Celtic and American folk music, infusing it with their own special reverence for the music and a maturity that comes from over two decades of marriage, family and performing. From their remote mountaintop home overlooking northern West Virginia's rugged landscape, the Pitzers music is a natural extension of the joys and difficulties of Appalachian life.
In addition to their duo performances, Keith & Joan are half of the exciting quartet Wolf Creek Session, which explores the Celtic roots of traditional and contemporary Appalachian music.
