Phillips Saylor Wisor has been a veteran presence in the underground North American folk scene for 20 years.  Winner of 2021 Wammie Award for Best Folk Album Distant. His music is identifiable by the mountain banjo and his unique guitar style that combines Piedmont Blues, Bluegrass  and Psychedelic Country influences. The folk songs of Stripmall Ballads affirm the profundity in the ordinary and the redemptive qualities hidden in our darker moments. A captivating performer and a boot-stomp-inducing banjo player, Phillips was a founding member of the old time group, the Shiftless Rounders and was the  touring banjo/guitarist for IBMA-winning bluegrass band, King Wilkie.
