Join Walt Woodward and The Band Of Steady Habits (BOSH) performing their musical program of lively familiar tunes brought to America by the Irish. Learn about the Irish immigration in New England and tap your toes to the music. History as presented by BOSH is simply amazing!
The five-member acoustic Band of Steady Habits came together as a group in 2014 to share their love of music, and to use their talents to help create a new kind of public history presentation. The Band uses banjo, guitars, violin, recorders, bass, percussion, and beautiful harmonies to perform songs – some old, some original, and some contemporary – to accompany the visually rich and evocative stories of state historian Walt Woodward. These presentations provide new insights and perspectives into a wide range of historical topics including the Civil War, the uniqueness of Connecticut, Irish Immigration, and the poetry of Robert Frost.
Living History programs at the NCCHP museum are free for members and free will donations of $10 to help offset appearance fees are gratefully accepted from others. Light refreshments will be served after the program.
Living History programs are sponsored in part by a grant from the Granville Cultural Council and donations of members and friends of the museum. Thanks in advance for your support to keep our living history programs alive!
