Coffeehouse Concert Series
August 20th at 6:30pm
The Yellow Dandies are best described as an absurdist string band.
Whether they’re dazzling crowds with tongue and finger twisting original compositions, or dusting off bluegrass standards and old-time fiddle tunes, the Birmingham-based band takes listeners on eclectic romps that never quite spin out of control.
