HAWLEY — On Saturday, Aug. 8, Pennsylvania Bluegrass band, The Coal Town Rounders will play two shows in one night at Harmony Presents.

“This hard-driving driving four-piece traditional bluegrass band is made up of mandolin, guitar, banjo, bass and tight harmonies from various parts of NEPA. Drawing influence from all types of old time string bands, bluegrass standards and some modern tunes, this show is sure to make grandma dance and little junior click his heals,” says Jill Carletti, Managing Director of Harmony Presents.

She adds, “With a decidedly frenetic nod to the Lester Flatt/Foggy Mountain Boys era of Earl Scruggs, and the Opry-infused, honky-tonk bluegrass of classic rhinestoned acts like The Osborne Brothers, the Coal Town Rounders pay homage to a glorious, toothpick-in-mouth backwoods chorus past, with the creative sensibility that comes from stories being handed down with just a slight twist to the tale upon each new recitation. Be prepared for a good foot stompin' time with one of Northeast PA's favorite bluegrass groups. The Coal Town Rounders have performed numerous shows since our beginning, standing the test of time. They’re consistently a favorite among our audiences.”

Harmony Presents concerts and shows take place in the underground theater of the Hawley Silk Mill located at 8 Silk Mill Drive in Hawley.
