Music aficionados are invited to an enchanting evening at Bishop Hill Creative Commons on April 22, 2025. The night kicks off with a community potluck at 6:00 PM, followed by performances from Tall Tall Trees and Walker Burroughs at 7:00 PM. At the core of Tall Tall Trees is Mike Savino, a trailblazer redefining the banjo with his custom-built “Banjotron 5000,” fusing psychedelic rock with folk and electronic music. Opening the show is Walker Burroughs, whose piano-driven melodies and heartfelt lyrics promise warmth and nostalgia. Immerse yourself in an evening of musical innovation and connection.
