Old Time & Bluegrass Jam Session with LHSB

Join Long Hill String Band every FIRST Thursday of the month. These sessions are 100% acoustic, run 7-9 and all are welcome to bring an instrument and play.

A bit about the Long Hill String Band:

The Long Hill String Band, with fiddle, banjo, mandolin, upright bass, guitar and voice, plays Old-Time music, also called American roots music or bluegrass, although Old Time is the predecessor to blue grass. The music includes reels, jigs, square dance tunes, waltzes, rags and ballads, and tunes to sing along with.

The music dates mostly to the 1800’s with its roots principally from England, Ireland, Scotland, Germany and Africa. Settlers from these areas carried with them tunes and instruments from their homelands to the Appalachian mountains and valleys, where they created a new music style that embodied their hardships, joys, and experiences.

The Long Hill String Band is comprised of Karl Varnai (fiddle), George Skic (bass), Bob Bell (banjo, vocal), Charlie Pearlman (guitar, vocal), Bob Safranek (mandolin), and Ron Steveson (fiddle, vocal).
