Ridgefield Folk: The Lonetown Boys Play Hank Williams

Join us at the Ridgefield Library on Sunday, December 8th at 2:00 pm as we present the group the Lonetown Boys next in our free Ridgefield Folk live music series! Please register.

The Lonetown Boys are an acoustic quartet featuring classic country, folk, blues and Americana music. Their unique combination of upright bass (Pat Lavery), Dobro/Lapsteel (Chris Davis), Mandolin/percussion (Dan Bonis), violin and vocals (Dan Tressler) and acoustic guitar/vocals (JD Seem) evoke a traditional, pure and poignant melancholy sound sometimes called "that high lonesome sound".

For this performance, The Lonetown Boys will pay tribute to the great Hank Williams, the honky-tonk poet who had 55 Top 10 hits between 1949 and 1953, including "Your Cheatin' Heart", "You Win Again", "Honky Tonk Blues", "Lost Highway' and "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry".
