The Sweetwater County Concert Association has four concerts slated for the 2017-2018 season.
The first concert, set for next Monday, September 25, at the Rock Spring High School auditorium, at 7 pm., will feature brothers Jeb and Jock Guthrie performing as “Scarborough Fair”.
Through songs, stories, trivia and humor, the brothers pay homage to the music of Simon & Garfunkel, and playfully engage the audience along the way.
The show highlights the brothers’ deep spiritual connection to this music, and to the 60s, the period that made it all happen. The New York-based musicians perform this tribute with startling authenticity in an “unplugged” acoustic style.
