State Theatre presents FRESHWATER in cooperation with The Bay Arts Council on Tuesday, August 14, 2007 at 7:00 p.m.

Four post-moderns playing raucous dance music, pop-inspired arrangements of folksongs, and lots of free-spirited step-dancing. Budd Greenman, Nellie Schrantz, Nic Gareiss, and Bill Wiegandt all grew up in mid-Michigan.
There, nurtured by the musicians in the local old-time and Celtic music circles, they began to absorb the traditions associated with fiddle music and percussive dancing.

Bill learned folksongs from his father, Budd traveled with his mother to fiddle jamborees, Nic learned his first dance steps by watching his parents in their kitchen, and Nellie attended Irish sessions and feisanna.

As FRESHWATER, their mission is to use the music they love to connect with people of all ages and especially to bridge the age gap that often separates young people from traditional music.

Ticket prices are $ 10.00 Adults - $ 5.00 Children and $ 25.00 Family of 4 or more. Buy tickets on-line. Click Here
