Lark & Owl Presents: Live Music in the Garden with The Piper Jones Band The Piper Jones Band is a lyrical, high energy trio based on the moving and beautiful sounds of the Highland bagpipes, accompanied by unique percussive chords from the bouzouki and inspired drums. While maintaining a strong musical base in traditional tunes from Ireland, Scotland, and Appalachia, the group also performs original instrumental compositions and powerful vocal harmonies, as well as stepping off stage from time to time to lead the audience in traditional Celtic dances. The Piper Jones Band brings authentic, traditional music to your audience in a fresh, entertaining way. Please join us in the garden at Lark & Owl for a musical treat. With your ticket purchase and upon arrival, you will receive a $10 gift certificate to the bookstore to be used anytime. As an added entertainment bonus, arrive at 3:00PM to enjoy a short performance by the Scottish Country Dancers. No ticket necessary to attend the dance performance.
