Acoustic Burgoo At Franklin Park Arts Center

Young Musicians Back Together During Thanksgiving Break

(Purcellville, VA)-Loudoun’s own acoustic band, The Acoustic Burgoo will perform on Saturday, November 28, at Franklin Park Arts Center.  Concert begins at 7:00 pm.  Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for students and seniors and can be purchased by calling the box office at 540-338-7973

The Acoustic Burgoo was formed in 2006. They have been privileged to play at Watermelon Park Fest, Round Hill Hometown Fest, The Bluemont Fair, The Purple Fiddle, opening for Larry Sparks, and most recently opening for Ralph Stanley and The Seldom Scene at the Franklin Park Arts Center.

Many of the band members are attending college, so this post Thanksgiving concert marks a rare appearance during the school year. A team of videographers and sound engineers will be recording the concert, and the audience will be part of the experience.

The Burgoo is made up of Rudy Bzdyk, Ben Walters, Erik Burnham and Melissa Wright, four young adults bringing a fresh sound to favorite old tunes—with a professional dedication that belies their ages. To hear traditional music filtered and re-appreciated through these talented young adults is something not to be missed.

The Franklin Park Arts Center opened on February 2, 2008 after more than a decade of fundraising and construction. The 2009/2010 season runs from September 2009 thru June 2010 and features local, national and international performers. Subscription and group discounts are available.  For more information visit www.franklinparkartscenter.org
