Newfield folk musician ready to tour after 2023 album release
Tim Ball’s parents were “folkies” and avid contra dancers who moved to Watkins Glen shortly after Tim, their oldest child, was born. “Our parents didn’t play a lot of music themselves,” Tim said, “but we grew up hearing lots of great folk music — singers like Peter, Paul and Mary, Simon and Garfunkel, and traditional Irish and American fiddle music like the Boys of the Lough and Fennig’s All-Star String Band. I loved hearing interesting instruments like uilleann pipes [Irish bagpipes], concertina and hammered dulcimer, as well. “Prairie Home Companion” and “Thistle and Shamrock” were staples on the radio, and my parents would make cassette tapes to listen back to old shows.”

This variety lends itself to a distinctly green and herbaceous expression of rosé and the Finger Lakes has definitely honed in on this style.
