April Verch Band Performs at the EOH, Sponsored by NBT Bank of Earlville The Earlville Opera House is excited to host an evening with The April Verch Band featuring world-class musicians Cody Walters and Alex Rubin, October 13 at 8 PM, sponsored by NBT Bank of Earlville. Fiddler, singer, and stepdancer April Verch knows how relevant an old tune can be. She was raised surrounded by living, breathing roots music—her father’s country band rehearsing; the lively music at church and at community dances; the tunes she rocked out to win fiddle competitions. She thought every little girl learned to stepdance at the age of three and fiddle at the age of six. She knew nothing else and decided early on that she wanted to be a professional musician. Cody Walters started playing upright bass while attending college at the University of Kansas in 1999. The sound of the instrument grabbed hold of him and never let go. He has since played in various bands, performing different styles of music, from bluegrass to old-time, jazz to Latin, folk and country and most spots in between. Alex Rubin is a Boston-based guitarist and educator. At the age of 17, Alex turned his musical interests from classical violin to bluegrass guitar, and has yet to reconsider. After completing an undergraduate biology degree at Cornell University in 2011, he returned to the vibrant Boston music bluegrass scene, studying privately with Berklee professor John McGann. In 2014, Alex started the folk duo, No Bones About It, with banjoist BB Bowness. The April Verch Band will perform at the Earlville Opera House October 13 at 8 PM. Tickets are $22 general, $17 members, and $11 students/youth, with premiums applying in the first 4 rows. Doors open at 7:30 PM.
