DaddyLongLegs to perform live

5 Town Friends of the Arts in collaboration with The Lawrence Memorial Library and NEAT TV present DaddyLongLegs in concert Thursday, Feb. 17, at 7:30 p.m.

The concert will be at the library, however, there will be no in-person audience. Instead the show will be broadcast live on NEAT TV. The programming can be accessed through the NEAT TV website neatbristol.com and Comcast Cable channel 1080. For those unable to see the original broadcasts, the show can be seen afterwards on the NEAT archives.

DaddyLongLegs is the confluence of three well known Vermont musicians whose talents merge to form a highly original acoustic trio. Infusing catchy folk songs, Celtic and “old-timey” melodies, and early minstrel and jazz pieces with passion and intricacy, DaddyLongLegs is playful and dynamic. Playing fiddle, viola, banjo, gourd banjo, piano, guitar, percussion and vocals, Daddy Longlegs creates vibrant, sensitive and surprising 21st-century folk music.

The series has been made possible by a Spark grant from the Vermont Community Foundation.
