Annapolis Bluegrass Coalition to perform June 18 in Stango Park
The first concert of the season was a roaring success June 11. The U.S. Navy Band Country Current kicked off the 2019 Lewes Summer Concert Series to a packed house at Cape Henlopen High School with over 500 people in attendance. More fun and good times to follow Tuesday, June 18, at 7 p.m. at Stango Park with the Annapolis Bluegrass Coalition.
The Annapolis Bluegrass Coalition is the premier bluegrass band in the Annapolis, Md. area. A love of bluegrass is deeply ingrained in the souls of these five fine musicians and they have been winning the hearts of bluegrass fans from all around the Chesapeake Bay area. With the traditional combination of banjo, fiddle, mandolin, guitar and bass fiddle, the Annapolis Bluegrass Coalition offers traditional and contemporary compositions laced with three part harmonies and bluesy solos.
Indeed, it is soul that is the very essence of Annapolis Bluegrass Coalition. It is evident during their performances. Their music has been described as “bluegrass fireworks.” Rarely does one see artists who enjoy what they do as much as the Annapolis Bluegrass Coalition.
Concerts are free and provide a family-friendly event with diverse music options. All are welcome to bring chairs, blankets, snacks and their dancing shoes. In case of inclement weather concerts will be moved to Cape Henlopen High School.
