Join your library for music and history with old-time string band The Skally Line!

All aboard for a high-energy trip through the heart of American roots music! Join The Skally Line, featuring the talented trio of Fred Keller, Bill Cagley and Dave Tousley, as they navigate the soulful curves and bends of early American melodies.

From the haunting echoes of Appalachian ballads to the driving rhythms of bluegrass and string band blues, this performance brings the past to life. The music is perfectly paired with forgotten, rip-roaring stories plucked straight from the wilder pages of Minnesota’s history. While this family-friendly program is geared toward adults, listeners of all ages will find something to tap their toes to.

Admission is free, thanks in part to funding from the Minnesota Arts & Cultural Heritage Legacy Fund.
