Peggy & The Delivery Boys
w/ Everest Rising

Peggy & The Delivery Boys are a “feel-good”, upbeat Americana band led by singer-songwriter Peggy Lecuyer on mandolin and Gene Lemme on the stand-up bass. They are joined by Kevin Maul, dazzling crowds with stellar leads on the dobro guitar, Peter Bearup, adding a splash of country to the band with his sweet, country inspired guitar leads, and master flat-picker Mike McMann on the guitar lighting whichever stage they are playing on fire. Playing together for over fifteen years in many combinations of themselves (most recently in The Nellies), Peggy & The Delivery Boys thread finely crafted harmonies into their songs, along with an energy that you may find contagious. Their fun-loving stage presence will put a smile on your face.

Please join us for an evening of fine music with Peggy & The Delivery Boys!

The Evening’s Agenda

7pm – Everest Rising

8pm – Peggy & The Delivery Boys

Everest Rising

Located in New York’s Capital Region, Everest Rising is a tightly-knit quintet influenced by bluegrass, Americana, rock, jazz and more. Together they create progressive acoustic music that is unique, powerful, and comfortably familiar. With a wide dynamic range, Everest Rising’s material spans from heartfelt laments to all out jams, all executed with instrumental finesse and thoughtful story-telling.

As this summer’s host of the Howlin’ at the Moon Concert Series, Everest Rising aims to support an authentic musical experience for both audience and musicians. Music traditions are meant to be fluid and evolving — this concert series nurtures local and regional musical talent while providing opportunities for cross-pollination of musical ideas, all in an authentic setting that inspires and reminds us of our place within history.

About the Venue

The oldest farm in the Mohawk Valley (1705), Mabee Farm Historic Site was originally settled by Daniel Janse VanAntwerpen around 1670, who established it as a fur trading post to meet Native American traders before they reached Schenectady. In 1705 the property was sold to Jan Mabee and it was handed down to generations of Mabees for 300 years. The farm complex comprises of a 17th Century Dutch House, Inn, Brick Building, 1760 Dutch Barn (originally built in Johnstown, NY), English barn, Mabee family cemetery and other outbuildings, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Depending on conditions, concerts are held either in the hand-pegged 1760s Dutch Barn or under the pavilion behind the George E. Franchere Education Center, both located at the Mabee Farm Historic Site.
