Larry Bisbee: Director - Producer


We are in the post production process of our feature-length film, "Barefoot Country Girl". It's a story about a young girl growing up in western Maine USA, prospecting for gold with her father, ( on Maine's Swift River, where gold was found before the California gold rush of 1849 ) but always wanting to be a country singer like her grandmother was in the 1950s and 60s.


We operate the Maine Countryfolk Music Theatre in East Dixfield, Maine during the summer months, Memorial Day weekend thru Labor Day, host songwriter's workshops, jam sessions, special events and award Countryfolk Youth Music Scholarships each summer. The entire project is conducted by volunteers and it is always free to the public.
