people, otherwise it cannot exist"...

Our Upcoming Band Events
The Band was to play at the Pa. Music and Arts Celebration at the Fairgrounds on Memorial Day Weekend, but unfortunately the Festival was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.Also, the band's scheduled appearance at the Terrace Room of the Hotel Bethlehem in the early evening of Sunday August 2, has also been cancelled due to the coronavirus. We're sorry that we are unable to perform at these recent events but we will hopefully be back strong when this is all over.
Our Folk Jams and Sing-Alongs

Unfortunately, the Center is closed due to the virus and thus future jams are cancelled until we are notified that it is safe to gather there again.
