CABTERBURY — The Wholly Rollers will perform their final show as a group on Sunday, Aug, 18, at 4 p.m. at Canterbury Shaker Village as part of the Music on the Green concert series. The group has played together for nine years and have performed regularly at the Village since 2018.
“It feels fitting to be playing our last show at Canterbury Shaker Village,” said singer and multi-instrumentalist Dick Bennett. “Music was such an important part of the Shakers’ life. Plus, we’ve consistently played there over such a long period of time we never fail to get an enthusiastic audience.”
Education Manager Kyle Sandler expressed gratitude for the many years The Wholly Rollers brought music to the Village. “We are honored to host The Wholly Rollers’ last concert,” he said.
With roots in bluegrass, old time, and gospel, The Wholly Rollers have performed in venues from northeast Massachusetts to the White Mountains. They have played for churches and many nonprofit events.
