This charming and melodic folk, gospel and bluegrass trio have been filling the house here at Lacawac for the past four years. We don’t have to go into great detail, as most of you know them well! They are back because our Lacawac friends, members and neighbors all love hearing them. Enjoy a collection of America’s greatest music – so many of the songs you know and love! Something new, something old, and something different each time they visit! An evening of America’s musical roots done in fine harmony and played unplugged on classic acoustic instruments.
