The Arts Barn 311 Kent Square Road, Gaithersburg, MD 20878
Formed in 2011, Shenandoah Run is a DC-based band with a vision—to keep folk music alive and fresh! Fidelity to this vision has been key to their success. Their performances pay tribute to vintage Americana and contemporary folk music, with a little country thrown into the mix. Their top-notch musicianship and soaring harmonies lend a fresh voice to classic and contemporary folk and Americana music and often entice audiences to join in for that irresistible sing-along.
Shenandoah Run is comprised of founder Bob Melissinos (vocals and guitar), Jill Nelson (vocals, guitar and percussion), Jim Thorne (vocals, guitar, mandolin and flute), Renee Moyer (vocals and percussion), Pam Ferguson (vocals and fiddle), Joe Dickey (banjo), John Werntz (bass) and Robert Burleson (lead guitar). With a winning blend of voices and instruments, their performances attract large, often “sold out” audiences. For events such as summer concert series, Shenandoah Run regularly attracts some of the largest audiences the venues have experienced.
Shenandoah Run has become a favorite at a variety of venues in the Greater Washington metropolitan area and beyond.
