   Late in the spring of 1997, a decision was made to bring new people
   into the band. This was to expand the band's musical range and to make
   scheduling more flexible. The new recruits were Joe D'Andrea (drums,
   percussion and vocals) and Amy Ksir (tin whistle, flute, oboe, and
   vocals).
   
   Pretty soon, we got to work integrating the new members. The addition
   of some "new blood" had kicked off a burst of creativity as we
   developed new repertoire and reworked older material to take advantage
   of the bigger sound. Our first expanded performance was at the 1997
   Philadelphia Folk Festival (with Joe added to the previous trio
   lineup), and the first quintet concert was held September 13 at
   Philly's LionFish coffehouse.
