‘Ramona Nights’ to feature free concerts

Share

Free concerts will be held at Ramona Library on the second Thursday of each month as part of the Ramona Nights series.

The first concert will be held Thursday, Sept. 8, from 6 to 7 p.m., with music provided by Prairie Sky, a San Diego-based bluegrass quartet. The band, comprised of Dwight Worden, Avery Ellisman, Ramona Ault and Jeff Smith, says it “borrows from a wide array of traditional and contemporary sounds.”

According to its website, Prairie Sky boasts an “inventive and entertaining sound, featuring strong, tasteful instrumental chops in guitar, mandolin, fiddle and bass, and stellar two, three and four-part harmonies.” The concerts at Ramona Library are offered through the San Diego County Library Acoustic Showcase, a community partnership with the goal of bringing some of San Diego’s best local acoustic musicians to free shows at branches across the county.

Ramona Library’s monthly concerts are designed to bring evening entertainment to the community. Plans call for expanding Ramona Nights programming to include art receptions and other social events for adults.

For more information, call 760-788-5270. Ramona Library is at 1275 Main St.
