Kinfolk is a little string band with big roots, honest American roots. Playing mostly originals written by Frankie Joe. Kinfolk is an earthy blend of down-home mid-west acoustic styles. A sound that comes from before country rock and before bluegrass had a name. Proud to be from the mid-west with an Ozark Mountain accent.

After playing music for many years, Frankie Joe had a passion for songwriting and while sharing his unique sound and presentation to crowds solo, many artists recognized his passion and wanted to join in.

Kinfolk began playing river music together up and down the Mississippi all year long. Kinfolk’s music is now on the radio, on various TV programs, and appeared at songwriter events as a featured artist. Mostly, Kinfolk wants the audience to have as much fun as they are playing music together.

As Billy Rose from the radio station would say “Good Stuff”.
