Bring your friends, bring your lunch, and relax outside as local musicians light up City Hall Park with concerts every Wednesday and Friday at 12:30pm.
Mother-and-son duo Sara Grey and Kieron Means grace the patio with a repertoire that showcases a wide range of North American folk material, including songs of loggers, songs of migration into the American West, New-World versions of classic British and Irish ballads, old-time Appalachian songs, and gospel music. Their tight vocal harmonies are sung unaccompanied or enhanced by tasteful banjo and guitar arrangements.
Born in New Hampshire, Sara emigrated to the British Isles in 1970, where Kieron spent his childhood and where both became fascinated by the migration of songs between the U.K. and North America. Returning to the U.S. in 2015, Sara now lives in Maine. Kieron is known both as a fine singer and as a guitarist, whose innovative song accompaniments are inspired by American blues and Appalachian traditions. He lives in upstate New York.
