Dance All Night- Their first studio album, showing off the multiple influences that make Spoonshine shine.
Live @ Joshua Tree- Recorded at the festival, and for sale 20 minutes after the set was over!
Live @ The Woodchopper’s Ball- Recorded live on Guemes Island, Spoonshines adopted home. Their most recent album, a great night on Guemes.
Though you won’t hear a song played in a purely traditional manner, it still holds on to tradition. It is a tradition of the new, and hopes to bring people together with singing, dancing, and feeling good about life.
