Festival favourites, The Hillbilly Goats, exude an undeniable passion for mountain music, the instruments and the stories. Our mission is to strip back the layers of modern music and transport you on a journey that began centuries ago when the Scots-Irish first settled in the Appalachian Mountains of America.

Our recordings and shows feature award-nominated originals, but mostly paint a picture of traditional songs from 1710 through to the 1940’s with a high-energy, quirky edge. Featuring banjo, fiddle, bones, double bass, 3-part harmonies and more, we share the history of Mountain Music’s evolution into Blues, Country & Bluegrass.
