nite We kind of just dove into it, Jamie said. The name of the venue is a play on the lyrics from the song Emily by Joanna Newsom, one of Jamies favorite lyricists: The yoke and the axe / And the old smoke stacks and the bale and the barrow / And everything sloped like it dragged from a rope / In the mouth of the south below. Jamie said that they try to encourage more local acts to take part. National touring groups, many of whom Greg Jamie met while touring with his own band, can sometimes take some clever wrangling to bring to Biddeford. One method the cou- ple uses is simply looking at a bands tour schedule. Jamie said that when trying to schedule a band, or musician, they will often look at the performers routing plan. If the group has time between gigs and is passing by the area on the way to Portland, Bangor or Canada, Jamie will try to get them to stop in Biddeford. Jamie said that the venue is mainly focused on music right now, but she hopes to expand with special events for the com- munity such as workshops. With The Oak and The Ax café, Jamie offers the community a Sunday brunch. She and Greg make the food with a conscious effort to keep the ingredients local and organic. Its kind of like a true mom-and-pop effort, she said, add- ing that she hopes to expand the café when time allows. The café is a way to support local markets and round out the venue. Volunteers are welcome and can sign up through The Oak and The Ax website. Charges for the shows are taken at the door and donations are welcome.
