The Friends of the Sussex-Wantage Library presented the
Skylands Dulcimer String Band
Sunday, April 23, 2023
The Skylands Dulcimer String Band is a group of four musicians that enjoy sharing music with others. What began as an acoustic Folk/Celtic band has expanded to include light classical, pop, traditional American and seasonal sounds. So, you may hear a toe-tapping Celtic tune followed by a familiar sing along selection. Their members do triple duty playing multiple instruments including hammered dulcimer, mountain dulcimer, 6 and 12 string guitar, mandolin, Irish bouzouki, penny whistle, boudran, bass, Celtic harp, keyboards and cello. They love to educate the public about the more unusual instruments they play, so be prepared! Switching between instruments produces many different combinations of sounds that present a unique and pleasing blend of music.For more information about the Skylands Dulcimer String Band and upcoming performances, please check their website at www.skylandsband.com.
