HARDWICK – Franklin and Ray will be at the Civic Standard living room for an evening of tunes that span traditions from Kentucky to Quebec and Maritime fiddling, to traditional and contemporary folk songs.
Franklin Heyburn is a self described French-speaking Yankee Vermonter from Kentucky. He started out playing harmonica, banjo and basketball, later learned to fiddle from the Henrie family, and was an original member of the Dee Wells Tenor Banjo Band. Professionally, he taught science and kept Vermonters in honey.
Ray Lewis is a multi-instrumentalist and sugarmaker who lives in Walden. He learned folk singing and traditional music from his parents and has played guitar across many genres for over 40 years.
The Civic Standard is located at 42 South Main St.
