Schooners & Crooners Free ConcertTuesday, October 14, 2008, at 1900 Hours (7 PM)A free concert, Schooners & Crooners, featuring Schooner Time, Them Eastport Oyster Boys and Inishowen will be presented at 7:00 pm on Tuesday, October 14, 2008, on the Broadway Pier in Fell's Point. Schooner Time is the bluegrass band from the schooner Martha White. Captain Bob Kay, First Mate Cherri Reese, Bob Hamlet and Elaine "The Boss" Hamlet combine their love of bluegrass music and sailing on old wooden ships. The Maritime Republic of Eastport's own musical sons, Jefferson Holland and Kevin Brooks, otherwise known as Them Eastport Oyster Boys, provide a knee tapping, toe-slapping, comical musical history tour of Annapolis, Eastport and the Chesapeake through original songs and stories. No other musical group captures the flavor of past and present Annapolis like Them Eastport Oyster Boys. Through their songs and stories, you are taken back to the days of the skipjacks when life was slow and oysters and crabs were the centerpiece of life. And then, Kevin and Jefferson bring you back to today's Land of Pleasant Living for a peek into the life of those who treasure this unique bit of America along the Chesapeake Bay. Inishowen is the husband and wife team of Henry Cohen and Lynn Colgan Cohen, along with their good friends Ron Peters and Eileen Bozarth. They are known for proficiency, versatility in their music and great rapport with their audiences. Inishowen's repertoire is drawn primarily from the rich musical heritage of the seafaring nations — especially Britain, Scotland, Ireland, Canada and the United States. Shuckers will be offering food and drink specials for concert goers so come early! View the Schooners & Crooners flyer. |
