Middlebury Community Music Center presents a family friendly house concert by the trad group Sap Line on Friday, January 3, 2025 at 6 p.m.!

Sap Line comprises Old Time fiddler Fiona Stowell, New England piano and clawhammer banjo player Emmett Stowell, Maine Maritime/Scottish fiddler and tenor banjo player Owen Kennedy, and singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Grace Martin. With their sound firmly rooted in the musical traditions of New England & Maritime Canada, Scotland, Ireland, and Appalachia, Sap Line blends these connected traditions to explore a palette of rich harmonic possibilities. Sap Line brings an astonishing number of instruments to the stage, adding a fresh and youthful flavor to their arrangements of energetic jigs and reels, lyrical 3-part harmony singing, and foot-stomping Old Time favorites. The band name, Sap Line, comes from the Vermont tradition of tapping trees to make maple syrup. Together, the band taps into their various communities of musicians and mentors who came before, sharing their legacy in dynamic, high-spirited performances.

This concert is Pay What You Can.
