This album is dedicated to the memory of our dear friend David Simpkins. We will always remember his songs and stories, and the joy he brought to every performance, whether on a stage or in a living room.
We are happy to share David’s song Lucky Man, as well as tunes by our friends Mike Pearrell, Muriel Anderson, Billy Edd Wheeler, Tom Paxton, and Steve Gillette.
With friends like these, we are the lucky ones. (Click HERE for the (Click HERE for the Lucky Man video created by Neal Phillips.)
With “Virginia Morning,” we celebrate and renew our friendship as we begin our fourth decade of making music together. The album offers a mix of songs old and new, including some of our own and favorites from Tom Paxton, Robin & Linda Williams, Steve Goodman, Kate Wolf, Chet Powers, and Laura’s sister Gigi. Thanks for listening, and we hope to see you out there wherever our travels bring us together.

The title track was written by our dear friend and mentor, folk legend Tom Paxton. Our bluegrass-style arrangement features the trio's signature harmonies and a mandolin break by gifted multi-instrumentalist Johnathan Dillon. With the help of Randy Walker, we've put together a lyric video for the song showing some beautiful images from our neck of the Virginia woods. Check out our YouTube channel for more Trifolkal videos. Enjoy!
SILVER ALBUM (2018)
Our "Silver" album (2018) celebrated 25 years of playing together. We wanted to recreate the magic of sitting around the living room with your friends and harmonizing on familiar folk songs. On this album, we share some “living room” gems by our favorite songwriters and musical heroes including Tom Paxton, Harry Chapin, Laura Smith, Mike Settle, Bob Nolan, Tom Springfield, Brian Wilson, and Hedy West. The tunes on this album are ones that have brought us much joy (and more than a little laughter) over the years. To our families and friends – even those whose hair is not yet silver – thanks for listening. Here's a link to an interview with Warren Kurtz from Goldmine: The Music Collector's Magazine.
Our video of "I'll Never Find Another You," the opening track from the "Silver" album, has garnered more than 65,000 views on YouTube, thanks to our listeners and Seekers fans from all over the world.
