Chester Summer Music Series – Stockwell Brothers

CHESTER, Vt. – Bruce, Barry, Alan, and Kelly Stockwell’s music spans traditional and progressive styles, but their trademark acoustic sound features new singer/songwriter material recast with banjo, alternative rhythms, and three-part harmonies. Featuring 2005 Merlefest bluegrass banjo contest winner Bruce Stockwell, The Stockwell Brothers have performed alongside artists from Bill Monroe, Doc Watson, and Earl Scruggs, to Mary-Chapin Carpenter, Jonathan Edwards, and Asleep at the Wheel, recorded with Mike Auldridge and Phil Rosenthal of the bluegrass supergroup The Seldom Scene, and toured throughout the United States, and in Canada and Europe.

The concerts are held on the Lawn of the Chester Academy, across from the Green and the Fullerton Inn, beginning at 6 30 pm and ending at 8:00 pm. People are encouraged to bring a picnic and blanket or lawn chairs.

The rain site is the second floor of the Chester Town Hall.
