Shady Grove is a four piece acoustic band with folk and bluegrass roots founded out of pure enjoyment for acoustic music. Shady Grove has been described as laid-back, toe-tapping, warm-hearted acoustic music, a throwback to the 60’s folk scene.
The Shady Grove sound is: Bob Berger on vocals, lead guitar, mandolin and harmonica, John Vande Zande , vocals, banjo, and dobro, Bruce Hahn, vocals, rhythm guitar, mandolin and Dennis Kremplan on bass guitar.
The Shady Grove has released a CD entitled “Another Season Comes Along” which is a culmination of original and cover tunes that they have enjoyed playing over the years and finally got into the studio to record.
The Shady Grove set list includes an eclectic mix of songs from Bluegrass, Folk, Fiddle tunes, Cowboy to 60’s 70’s popular songs and original works. Shady Grove has played throughout Wisconsin in events that range from outdoor concerts, dances, festivals, indoor concert series, and house concerts.
Concerts in the Park are held from 6:30 – 8:30 PM at the City Park Band Shelter on Park Street between 2nd and 3rd Streets. Concessions are available at the park on concert nights. In the event of rain, concerts are moved to the RACA Building in Nishan Park.
