Stoney Run to perform in VC

The final evening of music outside the Barnes County Courthouse starts at 7:15 p.m. Wednesday featuring Stoney Run, a bluegrass band from southeast North Dakota, in Valley City, N.D.

Ice cream floats will be provided by the Bridges Arts Council.

Stoney Run has been performing for four years in the region. Performances have included the Band Shell Concert Series in Valley City, the Fort Ransom Bluegrass Festival and the Missouri River Bluegrass Festival at Cross Ranch State Park. Two selections from the group are included on the 2011 Bluegrass Association of North Dakota’s B.A.N.D. Sampler recording.

Band members are Bob Bubach on guitar, Jeremy Zeltinger on fiddle, Steve Simonson on bass and mandolin and John Andrus on banjo.

Music at the courthouse is sponsored by the Valley City Parks and Recreation District, Bridges Arts Council and Dakota Country. A freewill offering is taken each night. People attending should bring lawn chairs or blankets.

In case of inclement weather, the program will be held in the City Auditorium.
