Just who is Oberon, the Possum King?

                                                  














    Tom Faux: banjo & button accordion   Robin Kearton: fiddle & old-timey viola
    Randy McCabe: mandolin  Will Hope: guitar  Russell Clark: bass
    Mike Anderson: sound reinforcement


    Great News!  We've recently added bassist Russell Clark to the Possum
    Pack.  Please come out soon and check out our new sound!

    Our first CD, entitled "Who'll Stop the Reign?"  is still available. You may
    have your very own copy for a mere $15--which is enough to keep a poor
    starving possum fed for a week or so....Here are a few samples:

    Mr. Lane's Maggot:  curious and perky!
    Willy's Auld Trews: the really pretty one...
    Cine Citta: how romantic (sigh!)
    Miller's Reel: standard toe-tappin' stringband fare!
