Scottish Roots/Progressive Bluegrass &amp;&nbsp;JazzA contemporary collage of Scottish and American traditional music, Hildaland is a duo that approaches geographic borders as markers of exploration rather than boundaries to be wary of. Fiddle player Louise Bichan, originally from Orkney, Scotland, and mandolinist Ethan Setiawan, originally from Goshen, Indiana, have taken their duo from traditional Scottish roots through to progressive bluegrass and jazz, with music inspired largely by places and the journeys between them, both physical and musical.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tickets $30 in Advance/$35 Day-Of

Where the proceeds go
The event benefits the Washington Ambulance Corp, the Shepaug High School Scholarship Fund, and other Lions Club charities. Last year, proceeds helped provide free vision screening for school children in area towns through the KidsSight program.
