Step back in time for an evening of acoustic storytelling and historical harmony. We are thrilled to welcome Rocky Point’s own Homegrown String Band for a unique performance tracing the evolution of American music--from the ancient English, Scottish, and Irish ballads collected by Francis James Child to the blues, bluegrass, and country sounds of the early 20th century.

This isn't just a concert; it’s a musical time machine. Utilizing authentic instrumentation—including the banjo, mandolin, ukulele, harmonica, and dulcimer—the band breathes new life into the traditional music of rural America.

Event Highlights
Old World Origins: Discover how 18th-century ballads crossed the Atlantic to find a new home.
Multicultural Rhythms: Explore how European and African traditions blended to create the foundation of American popular music.
The Song Catchers: Meet the folklorists and early "A&R men" who captured and preserved the sounds of a growing nation.
Historical Context: Learn the fascinating "why" behind the instruments and melodies that shaped our local heritage.

Note: Seating is limited for this intimate performance. We recommend securing your tickets early to ensure you have a front-row seat to this auditory history lesson.

Whether you’re a folk music aficionado, a history buff, or just looking for a soulful Saturday evening, join us to celebrate the enduring legacy of the American song.
