McKendree Spring was an American progressive folk-rock band, formed in 1969 and active mainly in the early 1970s. On hiatus from 1976 to 2009, the band played their final show at the legendary Douglas Corner club in Nashville in May 2013.
Experimental and innovative, the Columbus-based McKendree Spring mixed blues, folk and country with a progressive musical vision. Over the course of seven albums, they highlighted the songs of singer/guitarist Fran McKendree and offered up unique interpretations of songs by Bob Dylan, Neil Young and James Taylor. McKendree Spring built much of their reputation as a live act by featuring the virtuosity of guitarist Marty Slutsky and violinist Doc Dreyfuss.
