First Friday for Folk Music, featuring Jason Bible (The Train Wrecks) and Robert Benton @First Presbyterian Church

Anna ChandlerMarch 4, 2015January 2, 2024

FIRST Friday for Folk Music allows families and acoustic music enthusiasts the chance to see two premiere songwriters in a stripped-down setting.

Jason Bible of The Train Wrecks is among this month’s talent. The Train Wrecks have been on the road a considerable amount as of late, promoting their latest record, We Roll On; hearing old and new tunes alike in their distilled form will be a unique experience.

Savannah Songwriters Series regulars may have seen Savannah native Robert Benton perform before; he plays the monthly event regularly. He will be accompanied by Roy Young on mandolin, Bucky Jones on bass, and son Marshall on slap-top cajon.
