Evergreen is a premier music ensemble that has been around since 1991.Their music has American roots similar to that of bluegrass, folk, blues, country and swing. Some of the recordings Evergreen has made are “Roots & Branches ,” “Common Place ,” “Dream Reel ,” and the most recent recording “4 Evergreen .” The energizing music seems to bring a wide range of listeners to their shows. Evergreen comes together to create a unique show, practicing harmonies with original interpretations of songwriting. They travel from big-time shows to backyard barbeques and say, “folks tell us how much they enjoy what we do.”

Some of the local performers that showed up to previous Fan Appreciation Shows were Harmony Hill, Zevulon, Ken & Jane Brooks with Phil & Ellen LaClaire, the Strauch Family, Craig Stutzman, Elzadia Parsons, and Harold Badger.

"Without them there wouldn’t be a show," says Steve Chiasson. The show is still on rain or shine.
