NEGAUNEE -- The Negaunee Public Library is hosting Michigan folksinger Ben Traverse for "Old Time in the Current Times" music at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 29.
Old time music is a small part of the tapestry of traditional American music. In this program, listeners will be given an overview of old time music. Traverse, along with their guitar, banjo, mountain dulcimer, and autoharp, will perform a variety of songs, serving as lenses through which to view old time's wide range of cultural and systemic influences, how those affect its perception today, and the music's continual evolution and growth.
This is an opportunity to connect with a centuries-old tradition of communal singing. It is appropriate for all ages and everyone is welcome to attend.
