| The Dill Pickers | April 10 • 7 PM |  | Fundraiser benefitting the Friends of the Hoover Library "Just what kind of music do you play?" It's a great question. Norton likes to say that we're a vocal string band who happens to own bluegrass instruments. Truth be told, bluegrass bands do not usually have pianos, clarinets, accordions, strum sticks or many other such crazy instruments that the Dill Pickers use in their wide variety of music and frivolity. "Coming from our combined theatrical backgrounds it just makes sense to us to entertain instead of just singing and playing." Couldn't have said it better myself. So, don't let the banjo and fiddle fool you. The Dill Pickers will flat out entertain you and you'll leave with a smile on your face. | | Buy Tickets Here |
