Utilizing a highly-animated, single-microphone stage show, the Ramblers' originals have been getting considerable air-play throughout New England.
The Ramblers play frequently in the Portland area, and are available for weddings, parties, festivals and other events.

Bits & Pieces
Bits and Pieces play original and traditional bluegrass music with honesty and sincerity. Long time musical collaborators Bobby St. Pierre (mandolin, mandola, and lead guitar) and Ted DeMille (lead vocals and rhythm guitar) teamed up with bassist Kelly Burke and Dobro picker Dan Burke in the fall of 2007. The chemistry worked and the ensemble began rehearsing and developing a wide range of songs drawn from Ted and Bobby’s original vocal and instrumental numbers, songs from the first generation bluegrass icons, and interesting cover songs from the folk and blues repertoire. Collaborations in the summer of 2008 with local bluegrass banjo players including Jeff Folger and Suzie Gibson rounded out the quartet at festival and concert appearances. Bits and Pieces solid rhythm section, anchored by Kelly Burke’s stand up bass is complemented by innovative soloing by Dan and Bobby, and completed with Ted’s heartfelt lead vocals. Bits and Pieces put their collective shoulder to the wheel to serve the song. These veterans of bands such as the Hemingway Brothers, Bob French and the Rainbow Valley folks, Erica Brown and the Bluegrass Connection, and North Star never fail to entertain and delight the most discriminating concert or festival audiences. Don’t miss Bits and Pieces.
