Village Green Music Series featuring the Sandy River Ramblers
Address
Plan a fun evening at the Village Green for our free concert series from 6:30 p.m.-8 p.m. every Thursday this summer through Sept. 23. Bring your chairs and set yourselves up for a wide variety of local music throughout the season!
The Sandy River Ramblers are the longest-running bluegrass band in Maine, having been continually active for more than 38 years. The band has undergone some personnel changes, but in recent years, it has always featured young musicians as well as charter members Bud Godsoe on banjo and guitarist Stan Keach. Keach, a nationally known bluegrass songwriter and recent inductee into the Maine Country Music Hall of Fame, has written enough songs about Maine topics to fill two CDs, which have sold well to Mainers and vacationers alike. Julie Davenport, a stunning lead vocalist who plays the upright bass, and Dan Simons, a virtuoso mandolinist, help anchor the rhythm of the band, and the Ramblers are in the process of bringing a new young fiddler into the band for the summer.
