Squirrel Butter, Seattle based husband and wife duo of Charlie Beck & Charmaine Slaven, started performing together after meeting at an old-time music festival in 2005. Sharing a deep love of traditional music, they explore the genres of old-time, early bluegrass, blues, country, & cajun while adding their unique perspective to these traditions and threading these influences into their original compositions. Multi-instrumentalists, they play banjo, guitar, fiddle, steel guitar, step-dance, and sing in harmony.
