Concert with Scott Ainslie Oct. 18

Past event
Oct 18, 2024, 7:30 to 9 PM

Please join us at the Tinmouth Old Firehouse on Friday, October 18, at 7:30 p.m. for a great evening of music with Scott Ainslie.

Armed with a variety of instruments – vintage guitars, a fretless gourd banjo, a one-string, homemade diddley bow (aka cigar box guitar), and carefully chosen historical personal anecdotes of his encounters with senior musicians across the South – Ainslie brings the history, roots music, and sounds of America alive. He is a masterful and thoughtful historian, storyteller, and musician.

Ainslie has received numerous awards and grants for his work documenting and presenting traditional music. As a traditional musician with expertise in Piedmont and Delta Blues and Southern Appalachian fiddle and banjo traditions, Ainslie has specialized in performing and presenting programs on the European and African roots of American music and culture in community and educational settings.

His performances present a wonderful palette of sounds and stories that will delight the ear, awaken the mind, and satisfy the heart.

Suggested donation is $15-20. Refreshments and coffee will be served.

You can park near the Town Office or across the road, up near the church green. Please leave the area across from the Firehouse open. Doors open at 7:00 pm.

We hope to see you there!
