Updated: Top Hats and Monocles – Gypsy Mountain Music!
Bring in the New Year by celebrating with the Riverfolk Music and Arts organization on Friday, January 3rd at 7pm with local band Top Hats and Monocles. They embrace the rich melodies, virtuosic spirit, and dance rhythms that define Eastern-European folk music.

The Top Hats and Monocles are Ezra Graziano (Accordion), Justin Johnstone (Guitar/vocals), Stacy Griffith (Bass/vocals), Mike Hoenerhoff (Guitar), and Casey Lee (Violin).
