THE MOSTLY STRINGBAND - Updated June 30, 2010
THE MOSTLY STRINGBAND
is a 5-member band that formed out of musicians who
regularly attended a weekly acoustic jam over a period of almost 2
years. Our repertoire covers many musical genres: originals, standards
and Tin Pan
Alley
songs, swing, waltzes, and old-time, with a little Celtic and Cajun
thrown in for spice. The band
features Hal Oleari, Sherri Whitham, John Tiedeman, Rachel Anderson,
and David Menefee performing on guitars, mandolins, resonator guitar,
fiddles, banjos, ukuleles, standup bass, accordion, and vocals! Our
name originates from our being mostly a string band, with the addition
of the
accordion, not typically found in a string band. Recently, John
Tiedeman let us know he has to take a break from the band, so we are no
down to 4 band members. But he may still play with us, once in awhile. If you are interested in attending a future musical performance or having us perform at your event, please call Rachel at 628-4579 or email Rachel or call Hal or Sherri at 623-1676. We have weekly practices where you can hear us play, or even join in and play with us, if interested. If you would like to get on an email list to be notified of upcoming gigs, email Rachel. We
have band band
t-shirts for sale! They are in 3 colors: beige, sage (light) green, and
red in medium, large, X-large, and XX-large. We bring t-shirts to gigs
to sell. If you are interested in one, let us know. They are $15 each.
