Who is Maine Weather?

So what is it they say about Maine Weather-wait 5 minutes and it will change? Well Maine Weather is kind of like that. Although having had many musicians over the past 25+years, one thing hasn’t changed-we play good music!Currently it’s composed of Art Washburn, Kevin Poland, Laura Boege, and Paul Welsh. Each one brings their own talents combining to what some call “a good garage band” and… if you don’t like what they’re playing then wait 5 minutes and it’ll change. Bluegrass to rock, country to folk we move the dial. And, on occasion, roving musical friends pop in. -Courtesy of Kevin Poland
