[FOLK] Binghamton’s Driftwood is stopping at the Tralf Music Hall on the tail end of a fairly extensive fall tour building toward their forthcoming new disc, Tree of Shade, out next spring. With guitar, banjo, standup bass and violin at their core, the band projects an earthy mix of northeastern folk and more southern Americana tones. Despite their rootsy, neo-traditional nature, they do occasionally cough up something soulful enough to garner radio airplay in the college market and on more adventurously formatted stations. On their last album, 2016’s City Lights, “Lost Cause,” belted out by violinist Claire Byrne, shows them at their most accessible, which can also be said of the recent single, “Lay Like You Do,” which recalls early Ryan Adams. Uncle Ben’s Remedy opens up the show, Saturday, December 29.
