The highly praised husband-wife duo, Aubrey Atwater and Elwood Donnelly present delightful programs of traditional American and Celtic folk songs, a capella pieces, hymns, dance tunes, and original works. Elwood and Aubrey blend gorgeous and unusual harmonies and play guitar, Appalachian mountain dulcimer, mandolin, tin whistle, harmonica, banjo, bones, spoons, limberjacks, and other surprises including Appalachian clog dancing and French Canadian footwork. The Atwater-Donnelly Duo won Motif Magazine's "Best Local Folk Act" award in 2006 and well as three awards in 2007: "Best Folk Act" for the Atwater-Donnelly Band, "Album of the Year" for "The Halfway Ground," and "Best Female Vocalist" for Aubrey Atwater.

In addition to ten recordings, Aubrey has written three books of poetry and a songbook and Elwood has recently created a songbook for "The Halfway Ground." The duo is part of more than fifteen compilation CDs and has appeared on numerous recordings of other musicians.
