Shiretown at the Clove Hitch Bar & Bistro
Once conjuring saltwater folk vibes, Shiretown now resonates in flower power country. With evolution, comes wisdom earned through tales of loss and glory. Fated to share their stories, their songs, and their journey, Shiretown is back and holding court. These seasoned foragers of life lessons – Jess Favaro, Greg Favaro and Betsy MacDonald – rolled into each other’s lives like cosmic tumbleweeds destined to heal this hurtin' world. Their hopeful lyrics moor in Twelve String Harbour and float on three-part waves. From waterfronts to folk festivals to backyard picnics, this wayfaring trio travels the currents of the zephyr winds to bring you songs of wanderlust, sonic connection and the human condition.
