Walker Library, Cass Co. Historical Society and Museum present Skally Line Band May 16

Walker Public Library and Cass County Historical Society and Museum present the Skally Line Band for an outdoor concert May 16 at 4:30 p.m at the museum.

Named after the old rail line connecting Duluth with the Twin Cities, the Skally Line steams its way around the curves and bends of early American music — Stringband blues, Appalachian ballads, fiddle tunes, early country and bluegrass, and Tin Pan Alley music. Along the way, the Skally Line Band tells forgotten stories about old Minnesota, play original music rooted in that history, and have a rip-roaring good time.

Musicians Fred Keller and Bill Cagley are a band dedicated to creating an experience through old-time music and song with a focus on Minnesota history and story.

Come to the backyard of the Museum under the gazebo for a great show with music, storytelling, history and a whole lot of fun.

The concert will be relocated to the library if the weather turns rainy. Contact the library with any questions at walker@krls.org or (218) 547-1019.

This free Legacy Program is funded in part or in whole with money from the vote of the people of Minnesota on Nov. 4, 2008, which dedicated funding to preserve Minnesota’s arts and cultural heritage.
