Coffee House Saturdays with live music – Performance by ODnB & The Butler Band Duo

9-10 A.M.Long ago, in an America faraway… There were string bands everywhere, small groups that played all kinds of music—old-time mountain stuff, gospel, swing, popular tunes of the day, what we now call Americana—on acoustic instruments… ODNB is today’s version of these taking to the stage with multiple guitars, mandolins, banjos, Dobro, cello, fiddle, accordion, musical saw, standup and fretless electric bass, bouzouki, jug and jaw harp… Two people, Bea and Odie, hopelessly outnumbered by instruments. Come and see who wins! 10-11 A.M. Birdie Nichols and Lachlan Butler are a dynamic country music duo whose live performances blend heartfelt storytelling with exceptional musicianship. Birdie takes the lead on vocals and guitar, delivering expressive songs with warmth, authenticity, and a distinctive country sound, while Lachlan provides the driving rhythm on drums and percussion, bringing energy, precision, and depth to every performance.
