The summer is a coming and along with it, festival season. The
Pickers have lots of good ones coming up this time around, so be sure
to check the schedule to see when we will be in your part of the
country! We are closing out the month of May with a benefit concert
for The Window food bank in our home town of Goshen at The Electric
Brew. The concert will be recorded, along with shows from several
other local bands and the best from each show will be put on a
compilation disc. All proceeds from the cd sales will go to support
the food bank. The show runs from 10pm to midnight and wine and
cheese will be served!
