Fiddler’s Green February 15, 2025
MAX AND MAGGIE AND FRIENDS & BAREFOOT McCOY
MAX AND MAGGIE AND FRIENDS
Max and Maggie have been fixtures of the Atlanta roots music scene for over 10 years, playing for dances and festivals around Georgia and beyond.
They began performing together at the Grant Park Farmers Market, and frequently team up with other local players. This performance will include bassist/fiddler Jenna Mobley and singer/guitarist Jeremy Aggers.
Featuring foot-stomping old-time Appalachian music, soulful harmonies and artful renditions of folk standards from the mountains, piedmont, and deep south, Max and Maggie and Friends perform everything from wild fiddle tunes to low-down country blues, uplifting spirituals and haunting mountain ballads.
Max and Jenna also co-teach the Sunday afternoon kids’ music program at the Frank Hamilton School in Decatur.
BAREFOOT McCOY
Jake “Barefoot” McCoy is a Folk/Americana singer-songwriter and musician based in Ohio. In addition to his own original music, he plays classic and traditional favorites from the American songbook.
Barefoot’s music is characterized by his poetic lyrics and distinctive instrumental work on the piano, guitar and banjo. This unique blend evokes memory of yesterday and sparks hope for tomorrow.
Jake is kin to the legendary Doc Watson. Some of Jake’s other influences include Jim Croce, Bob Dylan, John Denver, Cat Stevens and Merle Travis.
Jake spent several years living in Kentucky playing folk music during hot shoeless summers. It was thus that he earned the nickname “Barefoot” from his Kentucky friends.
Jake is celebrating his 11th year performing as “Barefoot McCoy”. His latest album, Summer in My Soul, was released in 2022.
In 2025, we are planning to stream the Fiddler’s Green Coffeehouse shows on Facebook Live.
