The Time Travelers perform Green Fields of America on Wednesday, Feb. 4 at 6 p.m.  at the Parish Hall at Emmanuel Episcopal Church.

America’s rich history comes alive in this unique performance that weaves together storytelling and folk music against a backdrop of original artwork inspired by the titles of early American and Celtic fiddle tunes.

Traditional storyteller and fiddler Joe McHugh and his wife Paula McHugh, banjoist and artist, take you on a fascinating journey back in time to the folkways of the early pioneers, the discovery of gold in California, the battles of the Civil War, the building of the railroads and the challenges of the Dust Bowl and Great Depression. Along the way you will meet a host of colorful characters from gutsy trailblazers to gun-wielding railroad bulls, medicine show pitchmen to makers of moonshine—with perhaps even a restless ghost or two. Green Fields of America is a bountiful feast for the ears and eyes, spiced with humor and surprises, sure to delight the intellect and kindle the imagination. The event is sponsored by the Friends of Orcas Island Library.
