[Nov 19]
Comptche Community Organization is pleased to host Sweetwater String Band for a fun family event at the Comptche Community Hall on Saturday, November 19. Dinner will be available from 5-7pm, Music from 6-9pm. The hall, located at 30672 Comptche Ukiah Rd, was built in 1913 and is run and maintained by the community. Sweetwater String Band is cello driven "soulgrass", founded in the Eastern Sierra of California in 2008. Mandolinist Scott Roberts and cellist David Huebner write the material, and together with Jeff Meadway on guitar, and Patrick Ferguson on bass, work out the arrangements. They appeared this year at Kate Wolf Festival, the Fall Strawberry Music Festival, and some at the Great American Music Hall. "My hat goes off to Sweetwater String Band for finding a singular sound that seamlessly melds the sensibilities of traditional and progressive bluegrass (Shakedown News)." Tickets at the door are $12 for adults, $10 for seniors and teens. Kids 12 and under are free! For more info call Pattie at 937-1732 or email pattied@mcn.org
