Cincinnati Creek performs acoustic bluegrass, gospel, and folk music including a few original tunes.

Lori Thompson writes much of the new material played by the band. She began playing mandolin in her family band at age 16. She has been writing songs ever since. Lori plays mandolin, guitar and sings both lead and harmony vocals for Cincinnati Creek. Lori is joined by Cathy Martin on bass and vocals, Chris Pepe on banjo, and Joe Rowlands on guitar and vocals. They have performed at many venues including Utica Monday Night, The Fox Family Festival, The Adirondack Railroad, The Remsen Barn Festival, numerous coffee houses and outdoor festivals. Based in the Adirondack foothills, they took their name from the creek that runs nearby. The large lawn area surrounding the library gazebo offers the opportunity to spread out and enjoy this free, family-friendly entertainment. The Friends of the Old Forge Library will offer a used book sale during the concerts if the weather permits. Listeners are invited to stop by their booth and load up on used books, DVDs, puzzles and more. Donations are always appreciated. Library concerts are always free to attend. Listeners are asked to bring their own blanket or folding chair. Toe-tapping, clapping along and dancing are all encouraged.
