Leg-slappin’ music offered up at second Fair Haven summer concert

Thursday, June 22, 7 p.m.—FAIR HAVEN—Fair Haven will hold its second concert this Thursday, June 22, 7 p.m., featuring the honky tonk sound of the Starline Rhythm Boys.

Formed in 1998 (celebrating 19 years together) by three professional musicians with combined experience of over 100 years in various bands, the Starline Rhythm Boys are a full time, actively booked drummer-less “Tennessee Trio” consisting of Danny Coane (“Little Danny C”) on acoustic rhythm guitar; Big Al Lemery on electric lead guitar; and Billy (“Slappin’ Billy B”) Bratcher on acoustic upright slap bass, in the early style of Elvis and Johnny Cash. They perform vintage country, honky-tonk and rockabilly music with very strong country harmony duet vocals. Their repertoire consists of many superb originals, mainly written by Bratcher, as well as great covers of both classic and obscure numbers.

In addition to great music, these concerts also feature a very popular intermission where door prizes are given away. Prizes are drawn for adults and children. Hot dogs, soda, water and popcorn are available each week for purchase.

Bring lawn chairs or blankets to the park any time after 5 p.m.
