SHIPPEN MANOR LAWN CONCERTS

YET ANOTHER NICE SUMMER SUNDAY CONCERT SERIES IN SWEET & SUNNY DOWNTOWN OXFORD

 DAISY JUG BAND AT SHIPPEN MANOR

The Warren County Cultural and Heritage Commission is happy to announce an evening concert by “Daisy Jug Band”, considered to be fun - fun for the young and fun for the young at heart. The concert is on the lawn at Shippen Manor.

 Formed in 1971, the “Daisy Jug Band” has been performing to audiences up and down the east coast, and they have no intention of quitting anytime soon.  Their name suggests a certain style, but are well known for their diversity of music. They love to get their audiences involved, whether they are singing along, playing kazoos, banging on pots and pans or playing one of their zany games. Unlike most bands “Daisy Jug Band” visually delights with a mastery of kazoo, scrub-board and wash-tub bass.  Add to all of this a wonderful blend of harmonies, unusual song renditions, and unique instrumentation and you've got dynamic entertainment.

Band members include: Paul Aussicker featured on guitar, vocals, lap steel,  and harmonica; Stevie Fever on guitar and vocals; Greg Fickner on wash-tub bass and muscle shirts; Wendel Chonus on scrub-board, sax, vocals and harmonica; Vic Paul on keyboard, vocals and sound effects.

 Bring blankets or lawn chairs, a picnic, a couple of friends & your best relaxing mood to Shippen Manor, located just off Route 31 in Oxford. This free event is sponsored by the Warren County Cultural and Heritage Commission, supported by the Warren County Freeholders, and funded in part by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts. The lawn at Shippen Manor is reasonably accessible and accessible lavatories are available. Individuals with hearing or speech impediments may call the relay service at 711.
