The Gardens at Wakefield

We performed at the Gardens at Wakfield in Wake Forest tonight. We played an hour set, and had a wonderful time! The residents really enjoyed it, and we did as well! Here are a few photos from today.

Alleghany Fiddler's Convention

Over the weekend, we performed at the Alleghany Fiddler's Convention in Sparta, NC. We all entered into a competition individually as well as the group. The Band placed 4th; Jackson placed 3rd for his banjo, Connor placed 2nd for his mandolin, and Caleb placed 1st for his bass! We give God the Glory, and we praise and thank HIM for blessing us with the gift of music, and for ALL His blessings!

July 10th and 11th

This past Friday, we played at our friend Lynn Morgan's husband's surprise 40th birthday in at Carolina BBQ in Garner, NC. We had a wonderful time and met some new people and had a delicious meal! BBQ, hushpuppies, fried chircken, and of course, birthday cake! On Saturday, we played at The Lodge in Wake Forest. The residents enjoyed it and so did we! Right after we played, there was a very special guest. ELVIS! Well, an impersonator. And he did a good job, too. It was good seeing him alive and well! Well, that has been our weekend!

4th of July weekend

This weekend has been pretty busy for us. Yesterday for the 4th of July, we performed in Cary at a retirement home called Jordan Oaks. Then, we performed at the Stand Up for America 4th of July Celebration at the Franklinton Football Stadium in Franklinton, NC. The weather was beautiful, and we had a wonderful day!

We also performed today at the Eno Festival in Durham. We played at the Meadow stage at 12 p.m., and again at the Chimney Corner Stage at 3:00 p.m. It was a right messy day, but we enjoyed the atmosphere and had a great time!
