These guys showed up at the BlueChiliGrass Festival and really kicked it in to high gear. So we figured they should come play downtown. The Problem was in fact the solution to a problem at BCGF as well 🤣. Don’t miss this rare PH performance at LBMA FEST 2024 this Saturday.

Have you been wondering what exactly is an instrument petting zoo??? Well let me tell ya.
LBMA - Lake Bonisteel Music Association took the proceeds from our Orphaned Instrument Auction in March and purchased a brand new electric guitar, bass guitar, two ukuleles, a set of bongos and a conga. We will have these instruments set out for kids to play on. Once they have tried them they will be given a free raffle ticket to win the instrument of their choice. The fun happens Saturday June 29th at LBMA FEST 2024 Pine Grove park.

Winners will be announced before The Eclectic takes the stage. MUST BE PRESENT TO WIN.
