Balladir & Other Projects
Travis Puntarelli is the heart of Balladir, a chamber punk folk group which has been gigging off and on from 2008 around the United States and Abroad. Playing in Indiana for years as "Upfolk", and on the West Coast as "Prospex" and "Travis Levity", this eclectic outfit has
had a fantastic time and come up with an odd variety of arts. Below are some examples of some of our adventures.

01
Sea to Seed
2016-2018 Sea to Seed Tour. During the warm summer months of these years we toured the Salish Seas of British Columbia on a sailboat, visiting organic farms and performing for the locals.
02
Camp Grounded
From 2014-2018 we worked for a fantastic organization out of Oakland, California. This was an adult summer camp put on by the International Institution of Digital Detoxification. No phones, no computers, just woods, face-paint, new friends, and chocolate chip cookies for days.
03
Upfolk & Midwest Nutters
We home-based out of Bloomington, Indiana for 12 years, and in that time played with amazing musicians, including some of the ones pictured here. Frequent shows in basements and bars. We grew out of the weird soil here.

Albums & Videos
Over the years we have produced a variety of home-brew albums and music videos. Links to Youtube and Bandcamp offer opportunities to dive deeper.
