Did you ever wonder who the bands are that play at your local Farmers’ Markets, Community Centers, Assisted Living communities or other events?Who are these people and why do they lug their equipment, sometimes in the rain to perform for small fees, tips and often for free?
One local band based out of Glenwood in Western Howard County is The Mighty Kelltones.
The band includes Ralph and Kathie Lillie and vocalist Jennifer Boice.The band musical toolbox include: Gypsy Jazz, Scottish/English/Welsh folk, Light Jazz, Movie/Opera/Theater Music, Modern Contemporary, Traditional American Folk, Winter Holiday, originals & music of other cultures.
In addition to the Kelltones Trio and Encore Singers of Olney music, our archive website now includes Kathie's Art page which features some of her delightful work.
