The Atkinsons are a well established family band, rooted in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains. They play a style all their own, an acoustic genre of bluegrass and Americana music with a refreshing sound. They compose a lot of the songs they perform, which tell the stories of their lives in the northern mountains of the Adirondacks.
The band consists of Richard on banjo; Shelene on guitar; Liza on mandolin and guitar; Sara Atkinson on bass and National Champion Dave Bevins on resonator guitar. Adam will join them on occasion on mandolin.
Covid information will be posted as we review current guidelines and finalize decisions. For the past eleven years, the Concert Series has allowed us to showcase local North Country musical acts along with other acts not often showcased in this area. These acts brought enjoyment to over 6,500 people in 2019! The twelfth year of the Waddington Concert Series was scheduled to begin on June 19th, 2020. Due to the pandemic all concerts were rescheduled for summer 2021. We start off the tentative sensational 2021 season with our opening show on June 18th. We sincerely thank our supporters and entertainers for their understanding, cooperation and loyalty! We are excited to present nine fantastic concerts in our beautiful pavilion at Island View Park rain or shine!!!
