If audience engagement is any indicator, The Cheddar Boys\u2019 appearance on September 10 at the Glen Providence Park stage \u2013 on a perfect late summer evening \u2013 was a roaring success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With covers of such wildly varied fan favorite artists Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (Rocky Top<\/em><\/strong>), Fleetwood Mac (Dreams\/Thunder Only Happens<\/em><\/strong>) and John Hartford (Steam Powered Airplane<\/em><\/strong>), the \u201cBoys\u201d had the crowd swaying, dancing and occasionally singing along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their low key, \u201cold timey\u201d stage banter belied the band’s musical chops, perfect harmonies and ultra tight arrangements highlighted in selections like Wild Horses<\/em><\/strong> (Rolling Stones) and Policeman<\/em><\/strong> (Anonymous \u2013 Americana).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Cheddar Boys<\/a> provided the perfect coda to the 2022 Arts in the Park concert season produced by the all-volunteer Friends of Glen Providence Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
