Crazy Strings: The Silver Dollar's Final Bluegrass Hoedown
The Last Hoedown
A one-night-only revival of High Lonesome Wednesday at the Silver Dollar as part the club's final week ever, featuring Toronto's top bluegrass bands...
The legendary weekly bluegrass residency "High Lonesome Wednesday" ran for 20 years, and featured some of Canada's top roots musicians. Founded by Dan Whiteley and Stef Fantin 1972-2015, the band's members became a rotating collective that, at times included, Jenny Whiteley, Joey Writght, Brian Baron, Dottie Cormier, Victor Bateman, Marc Roy, and for the last 15 years, The Foggy Hogtown Boys. Apart from entertaining thousands of fans over the years, HLW became the centre of what's become an active bluegrass scenes in Toronto, one that rivals any American city or town. The Last Hoedown will celebrate that community by bringing together many of Toronto's top bluegrass bands for a 'one night bluegrass festival". The event is scheduled to coincide with the last Wednesday Toronto's historic Silver Dollar will be open.
