Burlington’s “Good Gravy” Opens Summer Concert Series at TA on Sunday

Thetford Academy’s Schoolhouse Rocks summer concert series opens its second season this Sunday with a performance from Burlington’s bluegrass greats Good Gravy. Good Gravy members Joe Agnello, Jeff Wilson, and Jack Vignone pay homage to bluegrass legends Tony Rice, Norman Blake, and Doc Watson – a show you won’t want to miss. Join us for music, fun, and food – Casey Huling ’92 will be there with his delicious Tug Mountain Pizza and snacks for the whole family! Show starts at 6 p.m. on TA’s quad and is free and open to the public.

Next up:

Thursday, July 18, at 6:00 p.m. Zach Nugent and Daniel Marc – Vermont-based guitarist and vocalist Zach Nugent of “Zach Nugent’s Dead Set” performing with his longtime collaborator Daniel Marc. The duo will perform music from the Jerry Garcia Band and The Grateful Dead, as well as original music from their own catalog.

Saturday, August 10, at 6 p.m., Western Terrestrials will bring their hard-driving take on country music. Fronted by Thetford Academy alum Nick Charyk ’04, the Western Terrestrials conjure up “sweeping panoramas of dusty astral plains and the allure of whiskey-laden honky tonks, Western Terrestrials are the kind of wry, unconventional outsiders country music could get used to.
