Ironwood is a constantly evolving family of musicians who come together to play originals songs by Bill Ring, plus an unusual mix of covers including country, blues, and rock. Joe Crum on electric bass and lead guitarist Dave Redmond form the core of the current lineup. Joining us on vocals, you may find singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Lora Pendleton, or possibly the inimitable Angie Beeler, who is featured on the newest CD, Faithless Angels. Joey Dugan, who also played on the new CD, has been sitting in lately on flute and harmonica.

    Ironwood has appeared at The Dock and at the Haunt for Bernie Sanders; also Silver Line Tap Room, Stone Cat Cafe, Six Mile Creek Vineyard, Oasis Dance Club, Downtown Ithaca Apple Harvest Festival, Da Westy, Cyber Cafe West, and on Ithaca's own rock radio station, WVBR-FM.
