BOCA GRANDE LIVE!
COCONUT CABARET WITH BOB MILNE
Friday, January 13, 2017 | 5:00pm & 8:00pm | Crowninshield Community House | $25
Join us for an absolutely memorable evening of boogie-woogie and ragtime tunes at the Coconut
Cabaret. You will be swept away on a musical journey from the soft and gentle 1800s through the
incredibly fast and swingin’ ragtime era. Milne has been called a “one-man orchestra,” referring
to his exuberant and complex interpretations. His fans say he can make the piano sound like six
instruments! As a recording artist, Bob Milne has produced ten collections of solo piano rags, blues,
boogies and folk/traditional tunes.
Thank you to Emerson Wickwire and
Tony Fairbanks for co-sponsoring this program!
Guests will enjoy the intimate atmosphere of the Crowninshield Community House. Table snacks,
napkins and cups will be provided; you supply your own beverages and, yes, alcoholic beverages are

THE KRUGER BROTHERS
Monday, February 27, 2017 | 7:30pm | Auditorium
General Admission $35 | Reserved Seating $60 | Sponsor $250
The Kruger Brothers personify the spirit of exploration and innovation that forms the core of the
American musical tradition. Their original music is crafted around their discerning taste, and the
result is unpretentious, cultivated and delightfully fresh. They perform new American folk music, or
music within the folk genre inclusive of new compositional and thematic elements. Today the group is
highly regarded within the world of acoustic music in North America, in particular by those within the
industry. They have also gained the attention of some of the musicians, including Bill Monroe, Doc
Watson, Tut Taylor, and Bobby Hicks, that once served as models. Watson once remarked that,
“The Kruger Brothers are just about as fine a band as I’ve ever played with. …
I love to play music with them.”

Come join us for a couple of pints, great music and a few laughs! Based in Naples, Florida, West of
Galway has been entertaining Irish-music-loving crowds throughout the state and up and down the
festival circuit of the Eastern U.S. Also known as Florida’s premier Irish band, West of Galway beat
50 other bands across an international competition. As a result, the band travelled to Castlewellan,
Ireland, for a once-in-a-lifetime performance at the Celtic Fusion Music Arts Festival in 2010. With a
mixture of vocals, guitar, fiddle, bodhran, whistles, concertina and even bones, the upbeat tempos of
these traditional Irish tunes will make you want to join in, clap your hands and dance a jig!
This free concert will take place on the courtyard green of the Community Center. Limited seating;
space will be available to park your golf cart, have a picnic, or tailgate - so get there early. Sláinte!
