Alt-Americana band FolkFaces, with rowdy blues and rootsy jazz from Buffalo, NY will headline a fundraising concert at Stockton University Campus Center Theater to benefit the Memorial Stacy Moore Hagan Estuarine Internship in the School of Natural Sciences and Mathematics.
FolkFaces music is a combination of early 20th-century hokum, jug band style and original foot-stomping good times. Specializing in merriment and sticking it to the system (with a combination of rowdy folk music and equal-opportunity roasting), FolkFaces make the crowd dance, and the hierarchy shatter.
