Voice of bluegrass to play in Los OlivosPeter Feldmann, “Santa Barbara’s voice of bluegrass,” will continue his celebration of 50 years in the music industry by appearing with his band, the Very Lonesome Boys, at St. Marks in the Valley, 2901 Nojoqui Ave., in Los Olivos, at 8 p.m. on July 7. The program will feature bluegrass standards, songs of the West, classic fiddle tunes, and a number of 1920s to ’30s country songs adapted to the bluegrass format. Peter Feldmann and the Very Lonesome Boys perform a wide variety of music, primarily in “traditional” bluegrass style, heavily influenced by old time Appalachian string music. Their repertoire ranges from Elizabethan-era ballads to Appalachian songs and breakdowns; from country blues to modern bluegrass and beyond. The band is widely recognized as one of the best in California. Tickets cost $15 and are available online at bluegrasswest.com and at the Book Loft, 1680 Mission Drive in Solvang. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. For more information, call 688-9894. |
