8pm-Closing Live Music: Dane Page. Dane Page has been playing music professionally for 4 years in bars/coffee shops/breweries and wherever else in the Charlotte and Boone area, but calls the Carolina Piedmont his home. He started playing guitar in 7th grade wanting to be Jimmy Page, and still does, but music has lead him to many different genres of music, and most recently, songwriting. His songwriting influences range from modern song writers (Amos Lee, Josh Ritter, Gregory Alan Isakov, Justin Townes Earle) to classic song writers (Merle Haggard, Hall & Oates, Woody Guthrie, Paul Simon)
Saturday December 12
8pm-Closing Live Music: Box A’ Chocolates. Emmy, Bryan and Max are a Boone-based cover band that cover songs from the 50’s to present. Emmy Welsh (Vocalist) and Max Schrum (guitar, and back-up vocals) began as a musical duo in mid-2014 performing in open-mic venues where they later met and joined Bryan McCutcheon(percussionist) from Banner Elk. They began performing regular venues in Banner Elk and Boone in January 2015. They focus on songs that are familiar to most, but seldom covered. Their repertoire includes songs from Jefferson Airplane, Ingrid Michaelson, Shovels and Rope, Tedeschi Trucks, Credence, Mama Cass, G. Love, Kinks, Stones, Beatles, John Prine, Four Seasons, Fleetwood Mac, Alabama Shakes, Neil Young, Crowded House, Aretha, Tina Turner, Elvis and many others. Some describe the band’s repertoire as being like ‘a box of chocolates’—You never know what you’re going to get, but they’re all good.
