STRING QUARTET ARKANSAUCE TO PLAY AT THRASHER IN GREEN LAKE
Green Lake, Wis. (January 07, 2025) – Arkansauce, a progressive string quartet will play Thrasher Opera House in Green Lake, Wisconsin on Friday, February 21, 2025, at 7:30 p.m. Tickets for the show are $25 and available at www.thrasheroperahouse.com.
Arkansauce calls forth melodies of the Ozark Mountains' rolling hills and raging rivers with their distinct blend of newgrass. They feature Tom Andersen on bass, guitarist Zac
Archuleta, Ethan Bush on mandolin, and Adams Collins on banjo. Their music features improvisational string leads matched with complex melodies, intriguing rhythms, and deep thumping bass grooves. Each member sings lead and harmony parts as well as contributes to the lyrics, which offer authentic, intelligent songwriting with hard-hitting hooks. They are a band inspired not only by their home state of Arkansas, but also throughout their travels. “We are a band that spends most of our time in the back of a van hurtling toward long nights, good times, and a destiny unknown,” says Ethan. “Our inspiration is gathered by events unfolding in our own adventures in real time. These days, the desire to create, inspire, and redefine within our scene seems to be the main driving force behind our music. From a young age we were huge fans of live music and were introduced to a lot of great music by our families.”
This event is supported in part by grants from the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation, the Green Bay Packers Foundation, and the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin and the National Endowment for the Arts.
