The Wingwalkers band to perform for Hayner’s Lucky Lemonade Concert Series
 Hayner’s Lucky Lemonade Concert series will feature The Wingwalkers on Tuesday, July 26 at 7:30 pm. Wingwalkers is an accomplished acoustic string trio with guitarist Michael Kalter, violinist Doug Hamilton and bassist Noah Cope.

Like these daredevils, this string ensemble speaks the language of the great American improvisational traditions. The group blends folk, bluegrass, Americana and swing to create a unique and progressive style which lends itself to original compositions, as well as a diverse pool of covers by artists such as Gnarls Barkley, Sting, The Young Bloods, Chris Issac, Janis Joplin, The Band, Paul Simon & Peter Rowan to name only a few.
