Come check out this amazing weekly event with food trucks, farm vendors, craft vendors, kids activities and live music. Something for everyone and the most fun you will have eating dinner on Thursday night. Plenty of outdoor seating under tents.
This week's musicians are:
Jeff Grippin was born and raised in the Hilltowns south of Albany NY and other than a few short stints elsewhere (Syracuse, Phoenix, AZ, and Queens, in that order) he has lived in the 518 most of his life. A musician for over 40 years, Grippin's music career began in college as the lead vocalist in his first band for 3 years. From there appetite for music whetted and he became a self-taught guitarist playing in a duo with his brother for 10 years. Grippin has remained active in the music scene by playing in several groups including Waterwich, Harmony Bay (a duo that has played the Albany area for over 20 years) 3 J's Band and presently a duo called Shoddy Docktering. Grippin also plays many solo shows around the area. His musical playlist is diverse and includes country, class rock and bluegrass music.
The Northern Borne Duo plays an eclectic mix of bluegrass and folk with a hint of jam band and blues thrown in for an old-time feel. Their originals are derived from local experiences and often have a storytelling feel, while classic and traditional songs take an edgy twist.
