General Information

•Join us Wednesdays for some great concerts.
•August 17 & 24 - Make Up Dates (if needed)
The Scharff Brothers
The Scharff Brothers have been around the block. They got lost, asked for directions, got back in the van, got lost again, showed up late for the show, in the snow, up hill both ways… and still somehow seem to have way more fun than any non- famous, non-rich people should be allowed to have. That is a Scharff Brothers show. No matter what song they play it sounds as if it were written by the Brothers. Their harmonies and execution are seamless and effortless.


The Wetsuits
The Wetsuits, a new York County trio, play a 50-50 mix of originals and covers, the covers ranging from the wildly This is a new band on the scene in Maine, New Hampshire
popular (Van Morrison's 'Brown Eyed Girl') to the ridiculously obscure (The Yardbirds' 'Over Under Sideways Down'). The band (which relies heavily upon parentheses) comprises Jim O'Neil (vocals, drums, guitar), Dana Pearson (vocals, bass, experienced and deeply musical and Byon Yeatts (vocals, guitar, bass).


Delta Knights BAnd
Spend the early 'Knight' with the Delta Knights as they perform their award winning blues, R&B, swing and classic rock selections. Winners of the 1996 Portland Road to Memphis Blues Competition & 1996 finalists in The International Blues Talent Competition.


The Kennebunk River Band
Kennebunk River Band will perform original songs as well playing everything from Dylan, the Dead to Tom Petty and Eddie Vedder , Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell to modern rock, country, bluegrass and adult alternative hits by artists like Allison Krauss, Sarah MacLachlan, and Sheryl Crow. The core of the Kennebunk River Band is Steve and Emily MacKinnnon, who each have many years performing as of acoustic soloists. Emily was named Outstanding Female Vocalist at the Maine State Jazz Festival when she was 17, and represented Downeast Country Music Association as a vocalist at the North American Country Music Association Festival in 2006. Steve was most recently a founding member of the Lower Village People and has played with many area bands such as the Sensations, Johnny Sunoco and the Pumptones They are joined for this concert on the green by drummer Ron Breton, guitarist CJ Walo, a texas style blues guitar player who brings his vocals to the mix, and bass player Kevin Ward.


Women of Note
Since 1992, Women of Note, an 8 member, all female, a cappella group based in Southern Maine, have been entertaining audiences with their melodic, tight harmonies. Our eclectic repertoire consists of over 100 songs including pop, jazz, doo-wop, ballads and folk songs.
Women of Note have become well known in southern Maine; our credits include: opening for Arlo Guthrie, singing with The Oak Ridge Boys as well as at The White House, Strawberry Festival in S.Berwick and the Bethel Arts Fair.


The Chris Humphrey Big Band
This is a new band on the scene in Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts, and is comprised of many of the same members that can be found playing with the New Legacy Swing Band. This 14 piece band's membership is experienced and deeply musical. Musical Focus: Classic big band jazz, featuring tunes from 1930s-1960s.


Rog & Ray
Whether it be the Caribbean style of Jimmy Buffett and other Latin beats or a well chosen country song or two, Rog & Ray move smoothly between songs. One look at the finely decorated stage and you can feel the tropical breeze even on a cold February night. Ray sings lead, plays guitar and congas, and occasionally can be heard playing flute and harmonica. Rog provides the harmonies and moves smoothly from lead and rhythm to bass guitar and plays keyboards as well.


Straight Lace
Imagine a band that has OVER 40 years of experience, a song list that includes 100 Top Ten Selections appealing to all age groups; A high energy show that Rocks, Swings and Waltzes its way into your hearts and memories; Add HUGE three, four and five part harmonies, expert musicianship, state of the art BOSE sound reinforcement and suddenly you have........Straight Lace ....... ENJOY!!!!!!
