Praised for their gorgeous vocal harmonies, compelling songwriting, and masterful instrumentation, Cabin Fever NW brings their beautiful music back to Nancy's Farm at 2pm on Sunday, May17, 2026! Fans of bluegrass, singer-songwriter, folk, gospel, Americana, and country music find much to love about their vibrant sound and performances.
What began as an adventure by two best friends, Cabin Fever NW has grown into a powerhouse ensemble including Dianne Bochsler (vocals, rhythm guitar) and Tara Caldwell (vocals, claw hammer banjo) of Bellingham, WA, Ed Johnson (vocals, lead guitar), Cary Black (Bass) and Paul Elliott (fiddle).
Cabin Fever NW performs at various venues and festivals, including the Wayne Henderson Music Festival in Virginia, Pete Seeger's Strawberry Festival on the Hudson River in Beacon NY, Oktoberfest in Mt Angel OR, and the Florence Winter Music Festival in Florence OR where they have been Festival Favorites multiple times. Their original songs have been recognized by national media including NPR's Car Talk and SING OUT! Magazine, and are sung in and around churches, folk societies, living rooms and campfires across the US and Canada.

We are thrilled to welcome back Margo, John, Ruthie, and Kate! Bring your family and friends for an afternoon of vintage country and pop, harmony singing, masterful guitar picking and fierce fiddlin'!
For the past 30 years and more, Jim Malcolm has been the ultimate Scots troubadour, taking the traditional songs of Scotland and his own prizewinning compositions to all corners of the UK and around almost every state in the USA. His voice is one of the finest in Scotland, and his mellifluous guitar playing is the perfect accompaniment. He plays mouthorgan to a standard you'll rarely hear.
Margo Murphy (vocals) and John Roberts (guitar and vocals) are the core of the group, singing warm-hearted vintage country duets from the likes of George and Melba, the Louvin Brothers and Merle Haggard, along with their own reinventions of pop classics.
John, a longtime member of the Bellingham-based Nooksack Valley Boys, has spent most of his life working on commercial fishing boats, which seems to have put a salty soulfulness in his voice.
Margo, well-versed in both country and jazz, has serenaded dancers and wooed audiences in Seattle and beyond with her velvet voice.
Ruthie Dornfeld has fiddled her way across stages from Manaus, Brazil to Helsinki, Finland, adding her deep groove and sweet tone to the mix.
Rounding out the quartet, Kate Lichtenstein (of the Paradise Drifters) offers up her multi-faceted musical talents - fine harmony singing, steady as a rock rhythm guitar playing, and spirited old-time fiddling.
Get ready for a great afternoon of music!
Listen or download their album The Sea and the Sky, which holds the distinction of charting on the FOLKDJ list.
