Homegrown String Band!

MAC presents the Homegrown String Band on Friday, April 25, 2014 at 8PM. Tickets $15 ($10 MAC members) www.milfordarts.org.
    
The Homegrown String Band is a “100% Natural Organically Grown” band, homegrown by Georgianne and Rick Jackofsky and their two daughters, Erica and Annalee. This “family that plays together” has been performing around the country, from the National Theatre in Washington, DC, to the Festival of American Music and Crafts in Branson, Missouri, since 1997. Inspired by the rural string bands of the early 20th century, this 21st century incarnation of the traditional family band utilizes unique instrumentation including guitar, banjo, fiddle, dulcimer, mandolin, banjo-ukulele, harmonica, jawharp, doumbek, and percussive dance to put their own stamp on a repertoire drawn from the classics of rural American music. Their original music has been lauded as “heartfelt, original, insightful, and impressive” by major music publications Sing Out!, and Dirty Linen. Homegrown String Band stage shows have been voted audience favorite at festivals around the country.

Tickets for the Homegrown String Band are $10.00 for MAC members and $15 for non-members.  Doors open at 7:30PM and the show starts at 8PM.  Come and enjoy an intimate performance in a friendly environment.  Snacks, beer and wine will be available for a nominal charge.  The coffee is free.  For tickets, visit www.milfordarts.org or call (203) 878-6647.
