The Fairmounters : 8:00 PM, FREE ADMISSION
“The Fairmounters” are a local band formed in a small township in Leavenworth County called “Fairmount.” The band consists of 3 brothers, Randy, Ricky and Ronnie McDowell plus two local friends, Todd Taylor and Ron Asher. The band formed around 5 years ago
by having random jam sessions with friends as the audience. They started taking the Bluegrass music they played serious when the audience started bringing friends to hear the band and asked them to play for various occasions. The more people that heard the band, the more followers they had. They have recently wrote and performed several of their own
songs which will be recorded and available to all of their fans.
