Joe VanSteenburg (Grampa Joe) at Jerry's Inn
The Organ Man

Grampa Joe has a huge love for mechanical music that began while riding Merry go Rounds as a small child. In 2001 Joe heard and was inspired by a Dutch Street organ and shortly after began to share his love with others by playing music at street fairs, fair mid ways, and has marched in a few parades. Joe embodies the Olde World Organ Grinders and brings back the nostalgia of days gone by to the delight of children and adults alike! He is also a member of the Carousel Association of America and looks forward to sharing his mechanical music.

Smoketown at Steve Eisenberg Woodworks
[email protected]
Composed of two brothers, Smoketown presents their own take on Irish, folk and American roots music (and whatever else might sound like a good idea at the time).
With O'Connor, Carey, Riley and Shea ancestry, brothers Dennis and Jim Thompson (and occasional guests) form this group.
Dennis has been singing and playing guitar for many years at various sessions, festivals, and pubs both in Ireland and the US. Jim has been playing and teaching drums and percussion since he was a teen (he really is old now, to that's a lot of years). He has played everything from folk to rock and jazz, and has been playing bodhran in local Irish Trad sessions since 2004. The brother's lives and music have been deeply influenced by their mother Johanna O'Connor who immigrated from County Kerry in 1946. She was the backbone of their family and the wellspring of their music.
So if its songs and 'chunes from Americay or lands across the sea that you're wantin', then spend some time with SMOKETOWN !
John Truth Experience at The Jericho then at 3:15 to Bainbridge Town Hall Theatre for the Streetfest Finale!
