Squirrel Butter, husband and wife duo of Charlie Beck & Charmaine Slaven, started performing together in 2005. Sharing a deep love of traditional music, they explore the genres of old-time, early bluegrass, blues, country, & cajun. They add their unique perspective to these traditions and thread these influences into their original compositions. Multi-instrumentalists, they play banjo, guitar, fiddle, steel guitar, step-dance, and sing harmonies. They are also both members of the venerable stringband, The Tallboys, as well as honky tonk project, The Lucky Shots. They are anchors of the old-time music & square dance communities in the Pacific NW and beyond.
