Cradle Switch is a five-piece acoustic Americana group, based in Cambridge, NY. Tunes include originals and a range of songs drawing from bluegrass, country, folk, and a little blues. Singer-songwriters Ferrilyn Sourdiffe and Dave Lawlor swap out guitars for banjo and mandolin, while Kate Ritter brings it on the fiddle, along with some angelic vocal harmonies to add to Ferrilyn and Dave's robust vocals. Bruce Weatherby adds some bounce on the upright bass and David Norman keeps the beat on percussion (and has been known to wear his special washboard tie to gigs). On occasion, honorary bandmember and fellow lyricist Chip Macdonald shows up to add a little rhythm on his lobster pot. Since 2010 Cradle Switch has played at various concert series, music festivals, cafes and other venues in the northeast and released their first CD in September 2017.

There will also be a cash bar! There will also be food provided on-site by local solar-powered food cart Vizavi!
