Great Bluegrass Hits Stage in Craftsbury at 7 PM!

Franklin County's Missisquoi River Band brings a variety of original and traditional bluegrass music to the stage at the Music Box in Craftsbury on Sat. Dec. 5 at 7 PM.

Hailing from Sheldon, VT, Patrick Murphy with Jim and Cindy Weed of Enosburg form the songwriting and vocal backbone of the band. Their unique three-part harmony arrangements are masterfully backed up by some of Vermont's most well seasoned pickers including string wizard Will Patton of Bakersfield on mandolin and National Steel tenor guitar, Neil Rossi on fiddle, and Jim Weed on lead guitar. Murphy and Cindy Weed complete the sound on rhythm guitar and solid bass fiddle.

Rossi plays in Big Spike bluegrass while Patton has six Will Patton Ensemble CDs of his own and plays bass and mandolin for a variety of other well-known bands. The band released their first CD in 2014 which is a great display of their bluegrass credentials!
