The Highlander String Band is a collection of Rockingham County musicians playing traditional Appalachian Mountain music.  They play the Top Ten Tunes of the 50's and 60's - 1850 that is.  Their repertoire covers all types of music from instrumental dance tunes, such as jigs, reels, hornpipes and waltzes, to the slow, mournful and powerful tunes depicting the sorrow and tragedy of frontier mountain life.  The Highlander String Band also includes lots of songs that provide a vivid portrayal of the history of the early settlers throughout the Appalachian Mountains.   Members of the band have been collecting tunes for most of their lives and truly enjoy sharing their love of the music with you.

Join us from 3-5 pm, rain or shine.  Bring your dancing shoes!
