Sunday April 20th - music by the Whistlepigs String Band

Our special guests this Sunday will be the Whistlepigs String Band.
They'll play some old time gospel music, no doubt. Music begins 9:45a with extended prelude time (gathering music). You won't want to miss it! Check out their website. They are:

The Whistlepigs String Band.

Not The Whistling Pigs. Not The Pig Whistles. Not The Pisslewigs. Not even The Pig Whistle Dirt Band as we were called at one show (we haven't gone back there).

We're a semi-traditional 4-piece bluegrass band featuring Banjo, Mandolin, Guitar, Bass and 4 voices. High, lonesome harmonies, and as one reviewer said Fred Keller & Chris Jones are terrible solozangers. That, of course, was a bad translation from Dutch. What she really said was that they are "superb lead singers."

But don't take our word for it, come here us play, buy our CDs or just listen to it here!
