Folk Music with Tumbling Bones

Darien Library Music Series Presents

TUMBLING BONES

Thursday, February 16 at 7 p.m.

The weather may be cold, but our Community Room is hot, hot, hot with the sounds of traditional American music including a banjo, fiddle, and harmonica.

The twenty-somethings who make up the trio - Peter Winne, Jake Hoffman, and Sam McDougle - have been callousing their hands and pushing their vocal chords for years as they’ve toured, recorded, and breathed traditional folk music. Their raw, though lucid, take on old American music has taken them across the world. All three band members used to play in stringband The Powder Kegs, and their time with that band took them from street-performing in Copenhagen and Berlin to venues along the east coast to an acclaimed 2007 performance on NPR’s 'A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor.' They played on the show’s “People in Their Twenties Talent Competition” and won first prize.

There will be a wine and cheese reception.

Please join us for this special evening.

CDs will be available for purchase.

Additional parking for evening and weekend Library programs available on Thorndal Circle (behind Nielsen's).
