MOUNT VERNON — The Sandy River Ramblers will perform in a 6:30 p.m. concert Saturday, Feb. 15, at the Mount Vernon Community Center, 2 Main St.
The concert is part of the February Frolix program — an effort to entertain Mount Vernonites (and others), especially seniors who might be unable to travel far, for entertainment during the winter months. Admission is free; donations will be accepted.
The Ramblers, who have played many concerts in Mount Vernon over the past 10 years, have released two CD in recent years; both consist entirely of original songs with Maine themes, including such titles as “Slow Down (You’ll Hit a Moose);” “Boots From L. L. Bean;” “Cry of the Loon;” “The North Pond Hermit;” and “Bear in the Barn.” Some are funny, some are very serious, and all feature outstanding lead and harmony singing and exciting virtuoso picking.
Guitarist Stan Keach, a nationally-known bluegrass songwriter and a member ofthe Maine Country Music Hall of Fame, writes most of the songs. Bassist Julie Davenport and Dana Reynolds contribute stunning vocals. Banjoist Bud Godsoe and fiddler Finn Woodruff are excellent instrumentalists.
The concert will begin at 6:30 p.m. Snacks will be available at intermission. For more information, call 207-397-2241.
