An Evening of Songs and Silliness
If you have not witnessed the musical and comedy antics of Peterborough's Washboard Hank, then mark you calendar for May 31 at UpFront Cafe. Performing alongside Hank will be his stage partner, wife and muse, Sweet Muriel.
These two are a very entertaining Country Roots duo who make people laugh and feel good wherever they play. Sweet Muriel is a June Carter to Hank's Johnny Cash; together they present music that is uniquely funny and skillful.

Sweet Muriel, a dancer/choreographer has channeled these skills into a music career. Her incredible stage presence and totally unique voice along with her mandolin and tenor banjo playing are a perfect addition to a show that is truly unforgettably entertaining.
