Faol Liath (foe lee-ah) may mean grey wolf, but there is nothing gray or drab about this Celtic band which plays everything from traditional to rock and roll. The group blends bagpipes, fiddle and electric guitar for a sound that everyone can enjoy as you can Sunday, May 7, for the second week of Six Sundays in Spring in E. Carroll Joyner Park.
Bring a picnic, lawn chairs and a blanket to spread under the trees. There will also be a variety of food and dessert trucks. Remember alcoholic beverages and gas and charcoal grills are not allowed, but there are two large charcoal grills at the park. Unleashed pets are also banned.
The lineup will continue with the EG Peters Band on May 14; Hank, Pattie & The Current on May 21; Walking for Pennies on May 28; and Charros de Mexico on June 4.
The concerts are free and last from 5 to 7 p.m
The concerts are sponsored by the Town of Wake Forest and Wake Forest ARTS. They are co-sponsored by The Wege Foundation and Lauren and Drew Bridges. The June 4 concert featuring Charros de Mexico is also co-sponsored by PineCone – the Piedmont Council of Traditional Music, Inc.
If there is inclement weather, the concerts may be relocated to the Wake Forest Renaissance Centre at 405 Brooks Street. Updated concert information will be available by 3 p.m. on the day of the concert on Wake Forest TV 10 and the Town’s Facebook page and by calling the Wake Forest Weather Line at 919-435-9569.
