Meet the Members of 3rd Sunday String Band
|
The 3rd Sunday String Band plays predominantly Old Time musicAppalachian and Midwestern fiddle tunes and songs, as well as a selection of early Country, Folk, and Bluegrass songs.
The band had its beginnings in the summer of 2002 when Bill Hayden organized a jam with other students from the Old Town School of Folk music to be held on the 3rd Sunday of each month in Grant Park.
As time went on, we began meeting weekly to build up a repertoire. Being a very inclusive lot, our numbers soon swelled, and since then the group has included from ten to fifteen members at any given moment, playing various combinations of fiddles, mandolins, banjos, guitars, upright bass, flutes/whistles, Dobro, harmonica, and keyboards.
