The island band High and Lonesome will play a show at the Red Bike this Friday starting at 8:30 p.m.
High and Lonesome is a group of friends who’ve played together nearly 30 years. They’ve been together so long, in fact, that some original band members have been replaced by their offspring.
With roots firmly planted in American ethnic music, High and Lonesome brings an intricate, tasty brew of bluegrass, blues, and Bakersfield-style country music.
Islanders will recognize John Schubert on guitar and vocals, with Tab Tabscott on dobro and pedal steel. Will McSeveney will play the banjo, Pete Martin on fiddle, mandolin and vocals, Terry Enyeart on bass and vocals, and Jim Bluhm on a variety of instruments.
Concert organizers say the band will bring good-time dance music in a folky, country vein.
The show is for all ages until 11 p.m. and 21 and over only after that.
