On July 10 and July 17, respectively, The Wholly Rollers and River Sister will perform at Canterbury Shaker Village as part of its summer Music on the Green series. The Wholly Rollers is a local favorite that plays old-time, bluegrass, gospel, sea shanties, and land shanties, while River Sister pairs โ€œsilky smoothโ€ vocals with โ€œaddictiveโ€ bass and drums.

โ€œHaving some of the areaโ€™s favorite musical acts perform against the backdrop of this spectacular yet serene National Historic Landmark is truly special,โ€ said Executive Director Leslie Nolan. โ€œAll are invited to come and share the sights and sounds of Music on the Green.โ€

Performances take place at Canterbury Shaker Village every Sunday at 4 p.m. through Sept. 11. Music on the Green is free with a suggested donation of $20.

Before performances, tours of The Village are available with a reservation, while visitors are encouraged to explore the nearly 700-acre property and its extensive trail system. To learn more about the music series or The Village, including upcoming programs and events, visit shakers.org.
