THE FRETLINERS are a 4-piece band that formed in the midst of the hugely talented Colorado bluegrass scene. Their songwriting, vocals, and harmonies capture the traditional feel of Appalachia bluegrass… the mournful, harrowing high lonesome tenor, the call of a freight train, springtime in Kentucky… but their instrumentation is a contemporary style reminiscent of Tony Rice, David Grisman, and Sam Bush. In 2023, THE FRETLINERS burst onto the Colorado scene, sweeping both the Telluride Bluegrass and RockyGrass band competitions. Since then they’ve opened for the likes of Leftover Salmon and Sam Bush and have expanded their reach to bluegrass festivals across the country https://youtu.be/Pg-k18j8vx4 . BOOMSCOOTER will open the night with mix of original songs and covers that highlight beautiful harmonies. Read more about The Feathers and Boomscooter Sat March 14th 6:15 at the Cheese Factory!

Wahoo! It’s about time! There’s no such thing as too many exclamation points in this case!!!!!!!

The Honeydrops were one of the first bands to play the Cheese Factory in its early days, winning us over with their world class talent and charm. Due to their huge success and fan base, they have outgrown any venue on the South Coast but, fortunately for us, the guys have a genuine fondness for Langlois and are excited to return for a SQUEEZE into our favorite dance hall

An event to make your holiday season even brighter. The Friends of the Langlois Library and the Langlois Club have collaborated for over 30 years to bring you a stellar event. The vendors are in place selling hand-made wares from afghans to jewelry to quilts and, to perhaps, a zebra potholder. The Friends will be selling their wide assortment of delicious cookies while the Lions will be serving beverages and an amazing selection of desserts.

A new addition to the event: The Lion’s Den will open in the “red room” featuring an unbelievable assortment of good second-hand items and a “freebie” table as well. Of note, all the monies o the non profit sponsors will be spent for library needs and the Lion’s charitable causes and renovation expenses. With this in mind, both organizations would really love and really need your donations to keep our coffers going. The Friends are requesting a cookies and the Lions: any other desserts, quick breads etc. Thanks so much in advance and hope to see you all there. This event will not disappoint.
