Old State House Concert Series

     On Friday, December 13, Delaware Friends of Folk will present the next event in their 2024-25 Old State House concert series, inside the Old State House on The Green in Dover. This is the eleventh season in the series which is produced in cooperation with the Delaware Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs and First State National Heritage Park and is supported by a generous grant from the Kent County Fund for the Arts. The one-hour performance will begin at 7:30 pm. The concert is free and open to the public. Seating is limited.

     The featured act this month is the Sussex County trio Bryan and the Barn Owls. Born into a family with a deep love of music, Bryan was quickly drawn into the art. His first guitar was a flamenco guitar handed down from his uncle. As he moved in and out of various bands through high school and college, Bryan developed a unique songwriting style derived from his many influences, including John Denver, Johnny Cash and Jim Croce. He also gained experience as a composer, thus mastering the song process from start to finish. After a year studying music in Los Angeles, Bryan returned to his home state of Delaware in late 2012 to start his journey as a solo artist. He draws his inspiration from America's landscape, his personal journey as an artist, and events in history. Since 2014 he has released 4 albums, got nominated for "Best Local Artist" award in 2016 & won Delaware Todays "Best Local Artist downstate" award in 2021. In 2018, Bryan started "Bryan & The Barn Owls" to further develop his sound. Why "Barn Owls" you may ask? The name was chosen because Bryan believed when one thinks of barns, they think of rustic Americana & when one thinks of Owls, they think of creatures thriving in the night. In that logic, Barn Owls seemed to encapsulate the vision! Backed by John Heinz on fiddle and Phinex Diego on upright bass, the Barn Owls deliver a true sample of the American countryside.

     The Old State House concert series is presented by Delaware Friends of Folk. These events are supported by a grant from the Kent County Fund for the Arts, an organization that aims to enhance the quality of life, educate, and broaden perspectives by supporting the arts and arts organizations in Kent County. Support is also provided by the First State National Heritage Park, a partnership of State and City agencies under the leadership of Delaware State Parks and the Delaware Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs. Delaware Friends of Folk are partially supported by a grant from the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts. The Division promotes Delaware arts events on www.DelawareScene.com.
