Seth Yacovone Band at our Concerts on the Green
“VT’s Hardest Hitting Power Trio” Seth Yacovone Band has been a fixture of the Vermont music scene since 1995. The band started when Yacovone was 16 and evolved from a straight blues band to becoming a more open ended and rock-oriented sound. The current lineup, consisting of Steve Hadeka, Alex Budney and Seth Yacovone, have been making some of the best music of the band’s existence, becoming an improvisational, heavy blues rock trio, power charging Yacovone’s original songs. The band has released 8 albums, toured America and Italy, opened for and or shared the stage with acts such as Ray Charles, BB King, Phish, Neville Bros, Dr. John, Johnny Winter among others.
Music begins at 5:30pm. The green is open all day, with food served from 4pm on.
