Our Music Roots
Run Deep
Flagstaff Friends of Traditional Music (FFOTM) began in 1988 as a group of friends, mostly musicians, had a love of traditional music and dance in common. Those founders put in the effort to organize a club that was ultimately transformed into a Nonprofit in 2000.
As a Nonprofit arts organization FFOTM has been honored and supported by many grants which have funded a variety of mission-focused activities. FFOTM hosts regular weekly jams and annual campouts. These are some of the best activities to learn, share and enjoy traditional music.
Our unique location in the mountains of Northern Arizona has provided a beautiful backdrop for the Flagstaff Folk Festival, born in 2002 and Pickin’ in the Pines, started in 2006.
Thank you to our generous supporters
