Clare McNaul and Blain Bovee first met in a Deadwood saloon and quickly discovered their shared love of song. Now performing as Drifting Tunes, they’ve spent decades creating a warm, inviting blend of Folk, Roots, Americana, and Country. Clare’s rich, earthy vocals pair beautifully with Blain’s tender harmonies and guitar, bringing to life songs inspired by their travels, experiences, and the people they’ve met along the way.
