MT. VERNON — On Saturday, April 28, the Sandy River Ramblers will bring their Bluegrass sound to the Mt. Vernon Community Center once again. This concert, like all of the band’s shows, will feature many original songs about Maine topics, including some crowd favorites such as Cry of the Loon; Slow Down (You’ll Hit a Moose); Trout On the Line; and Boots From L. L. Bean.

The band features the instrumental playing of Bud Godsoe and Dan Simons on banjo and mandolin; the lead and harmony singing of Julie Davenport and 15-year-old phenom Dana Reynolds; and the songwriting of Stan Keach.

The Ramblers play an eclectic mix of bluegrass, country, hillbilly rock and folk music, but their special niche is original songs about Maine. Their 2012 CD Cry of the Loon and other original songs about Maine has been called “a gift to Mainers” by Maine writer George Smith, and they have been lately showcasing some new Maine songs.

The Mt. Vernon Community Center is downtown, next to the Mt. Vernon Town Beach and across from the fire station.

The concert will start at 6:30 p.m. A couple of surprise guest performers is a distinct possibility. Refreshments will be available for sale at intermission. Donations will be gratefully accepted at the door.

For more information, call 207-397-2241.

The Sandy River Ramblers include Dan Simons, Dana Reynolds, Stan Keach, Bud Godsoe and Julie Churchill.
