The Foxgloves to Play Cedar Ridge Session in Ripon

PRESS RELEASE   

Cedar Ridge Sessions at Thrasher Opera House July 27-29

Green Lake, Wis. (July 24, 2023) – Due to the forecasted excessive heat and potential for storm activity, Thrasher Opera House has decided to relocate the Cedar Ridge Sessions on July 27-29 to the Thrasher Opera House in Green Lake (506 Mill St.) This will allow our performers, guests, and staff to remain safe and comfortable.  If you have a ticket for the July 27-29 Cedar Ridge Sessions, please note that the event will now be held at Thrasher Opera House (506 Mill St.) in Green Lake.

The event will now feature cocktail table-style seating and a dance floor, and guests can purchase cheese trays and champagne to enjoy during the evening.  Guests are still encouraged to bring picnic-style snacks to enjoy.  Please, no carry-in beverages as a bar will be available for guests.

This year’s performers will include folk artists Adrian + Meredith.  Their music embodies the spirit of the human story with a nod to punk, the heart of folk, the flavor of Polka, and a bounce of swing.  Dig Deep joins the bill on Friday.  A hard-driving string band from the heart of Wisconsin with 600+ shows, they have firmly established themselves as an utterly unique and powerful force in the roots world with opener Sharin’ Barrels.  Concluding the event are Minnesota’s Foxgloves, an all-female band, a little bit of country, a little bit of folk, a little bit of classical, and a whole lot of heart.

CRS is sponsored by Better Homes & Garden Real Estate Special Properties, KH Jankowski Construction, and the Butzin – Marchant Funeral Home & Crematory.  Additional promotional support for the event is provided by the Ripon Area Chamber of Commerce.  This event is supported in part by a grant from the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation and the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Tickets for the Cedar Ridge Sessions are $35 per night or $90 for all three nights and are available at www.thrasheroperahouse.com or by calling 920.294.4279
