Volo Bog State Natural Area and Friends of Volo Bog are delighted to welcome back Harper's Back Porch Revue

A few years back, this eclectic ensemble filled our room with the energy of nearly 20 musicians! Harper's Back Porch Revue explores Americana music from the late 19th to the mid-20th Centuries: blues and country, old time, folk, gospel, and more. They perform on string instruments of all sorts: guitars, banjos, fiddles, ukuleles, bass, etc., as well as hand drumming and singing. The ever-evolving group, led by Scott Cashman and Bekr Ali, brings a variety of backgrounds and experiences together for a one-of-a-kind experience with each performance. We are so excited to have them back and hope you will join us!
