Welcome

Manitou Strings is a unique ensemble that brings together roots and Americana music, along with some of the best rock n' roll tunes from the 60s and 70s....add in some pretty wild, new fangled music brought in by the younger members of the band: and all of it blends into a memorable, fun, and soulful evening of music. 
​
​We are available for your next block party, event, birthday, retirement...bar gig. Let us know and we'll work it into the schedule. We look forward to providing a great show for your customers, friends and family.

Meet the band

Spencer Wren
A Louisiana boy, Spencer grew up influenced by church music, harmony  singing and, after a while,  the Grateful Dead. It was through the Dead that Spencer took a deep dive into some of the old tunes in the traditional music catalogue. He has brought many original compositions to the band, and lends strong lead vocals and a fast hand to his guitar playing.
Bobby Wolfe 
A native of Altus, Oklahoma, Bobby earned his Bachelor's degree in Music Education from Southwestern Oklahoma State University. His Master's degree is in Jazz Performance from the University of Central Oklahoma. He was originally in the Army,  then switched over to the Air Force in 2019;  stationed at Lackland AFB in San Antonio.  Bobby  has studied guitar with Dr. Robert Chambers, Matthew Denman, Danny Vaughan, and the Romero Guitar Quartet.
Joy Maples
Joy began playing bass to accompany her two sons and it 's been a fun ride ever since. Originally grounded in bluegrass, she has branched out into Gypsy jazz, rock and especially the music of Leadbelly, John Hartford, Hot Rize, Tony Rice and many others. With a strong, brassy voice, she can belt out leads, and also contributes to the Strings' harmonies.
