Rhythm on the River – Appalachian Road Show

Join us for the first Rhythm on the River concert of the year with the acoustic ensemble, Appalachian Road Show! The group performs bluegrass and folk music, as well as original songs. The event will take place along the Ford lawn, along the Caloosahatchee River. Gates open at 6 p.m. and the concert starts at 6:30 p.m.

The group’s music tells stories from the mountains and valleys of North Carolina and Virgina and the coal mines of West Virginia and Kentucky. Those stories include topics of logging, coal mining, trains, and lost love in their hit songs such as “ I am just a Pilgrim,” Little Black Train,” “Dance, Dance, Dance,” and the ballad of love and loss in “Anna Lee.”
