Old Firehouse Concert – The Sky Blue Boys – May 3 @ 7:30pm

May 3 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

For over twenty years, The Sky Blue Boys – Banjo Dan & Willy Lindner – have combined two voices and a carload of stringed instruments to deliver a lively program of acoustic music characterized by the excitement of bluegrass, the authenticity of folk, and the exuberance of the old-time string-band.

Long time favorites of the enthusiastic crowds at the Old Firehouse, The Sky Blue Boys have revived the tradition of “brothers duets”. They have built up a large repertoire of wonderful old ballads, parlor songs, heart songs and sacred numbers. Heeding their own musical instincts they have expanded the accompaniment to include a variety of acoustic instruments and added many newer songs including several of their own compositions.

Willy and Dan have played together for decades. They formed the celebrated Vermont bluegrass band Banjo Dan and
the Mid-nite Plowboys in 1972. But never far from their hearts were the sounds they learned to love long ago – the simple moving sounds of the early “brothers duets.”

All concerts are on Friday nights at 7:30 PM in Tinmouth village, doors open at 7 PM. The Old Firehouse is on Mountain View Road just a few hundred feet south of the intersection with Vermont 140. Park on the road or on the Town Green in front of the church. Suggested donation of $15 – $20.   90% goes to the musicians, and 10% goes to the Town to support maintenance of the Old Firehouse. We’ll provide coffee and refreshments.
