County Bluegrass Festivals and the Caribou Performing Arts Center will host The Spinney Brothers in concert on Friday, Jan. 14 at 7 p.m. The Spinney Brothers, one of Nova Scotia’s most awarded bluegrass bands, were recently inducted in Nova Scotia’s Bluegrass Hall of Fame.
Brothers Allan and Rick debuted their band in 1992, showcasing a tight brother duet vocal style that was immediately recognized for its energetic and distinctive sound.
The cornerstone of the Spinney Brothers musical identity is the sound of traditional, Southern-flavored bluegrass music. The first generation bluegrass legends have been an important musical influence, yet their music is equally shaped by their personal lives and local heritage.
Tickets are $10 and are available from the CPAC distributors including Caribou One Stop, Dead River Convenience Store,Caribou; Harvest Market, Fort Fairfield; Ezzy’s Music, Van Buren; Robert’s Jeweler’s Madawaska; Paradis Shop and Save, Fort Kent; Goin’ Postal and The Aroostook Centre Mall in Presque Isle.
