The Alaska String Band will perform in the first-ever town hall concert series at 7p.m., Monday, Feb. 15. The event is sponsored by the Bluffton Cultural Affairs Committee. Admission is by donation. Concessions are available.
The Alaska String Band is a concert group comprised of members of a single family performing with guitar, twin violin-fiddles, bass, mandolin, ukulele, percussion and vocals. Uniquely Alaskan musical entertainment, this band is on tour across the United States.
The repertoire of the Alaska String Band consists of a lively collection of bluegrass, old time, gospel, swing, dawg, blues, Celtic and original music. Many songs they play are often-requested favorites.
Also featured are beautiful waltzes, airs and haunting melodies graced with vocal blends heard only in single family arrangements.
Audiences delight in the youthful exuberance of this family band which exhibits extraordinary musicianship, technical skill and interpretative ability. Energetic dancing and attractive costumes designed to reflect the spirit of Alaskan artistic lifestyle, culture and traditions lend excitement and a dramatic flare to their shows.
The Alaska String Band will be doing a master class for strings students in the area, sponsored by the Bluffton Music Boosters, and will perform at Common Grounds Coffeehouse Saturday evening, Feb 13.
