This performance features musicians who met picking and singing together in the Boston area Bluegrass jamming scene, and includes Tim Parke on guitar, Jed Mehegan on Banjo, Cindy Thames on mandolin, Gene Favret on Dobro, Bas van der Brugge on fiddle, and John Brunette on upright bass. For the last several years Tim has hosted the monthly Bluegrass jams at the Dedham School of Music.
Together, The Ramblers perform a mix of classic and modern Bluegrass songs. They are highly influenced by Doc Watson, Bill Monroe, Norman Blake, Flatt and Scruggs, John Prine, Townes Van Zandt, Della Mae and many more. The performance will feature a curated set of Bluegrass favorites interpreted by each member’s personal voice and instrumental style.
First Church and Parish Dedham Unitarian Universalist was first gathered in 1638 and is located in Dedham Center at 670 High Street. Its lively music program includes choir at Sunday services, the Parish Players theater troupe, and the Concerts at First Church Saturday classical concert series, in addition to our Friday Folk Coffeehouse events.
