The Torrington Historical Society is pleased to announce the return of The Zolla Boys for an outdoor concert featuring their one-of-a-kind bluegrass brothers harmony. The concert, sponsored by Northwest Community Bank, will take place on the grounds of the Torrington Historical Society on Friday, August 28, 2020, at 6 pm (rain date: August 29, 2020). Due to COVID-19, seating will be limited to 31 socially distanced locations. Each location is $20 and can seat a household group or social bubble of 1- 4 people. Attendees must wear masks and are asked to bring their own chairs or blanket. Reservations are required; to purchase a ticket visit the Society’s website.
The Zolla Boys are brothers, Ben (guitar), and Sam (mandolin), along with their dad, Larry (bass). Based out of Northwest Connecticut, they perform throughout New England and the Northeast and have been featured on award-winning festival stages—including the Grey Fox Emerging Artist Showcase and Joe Val Bluegrass Festival—and have performed live on Woodsongs Old-Time Radio Hour.
Ben and Sam started playing music with their dad, Larry, in the spring of 2012. What started as a hobby quickly grew into regular bookings at bluegrass music festivals, music venues, concert halls, and radio stations. Their tight, brother harmony vocals have attracted tens of thousands of fans to their music videos on Facebook and YouTube. From traditional brother duets to contemporary driving bluegrass, or songs from the legendary singer/songwriters of the ’60s and ’70s, the Zolla Boys interpret and perform music in a unique style.
The Torrington Historical Society is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to collecting, preserving and sharing Torrington's rich and diverse history. The museum is located at the historic Hotchkiss-Fyler estate in downtown Torrington. For more information about the Society visit www.torringtonhistoricalsociety.org
