Monster Mike Welch and Mike Ledbetter will perform from 4 to 7 p .m. Sunday, Aug. 13, at Blues in the Barn, Mountain Village Farm B&B, 164 Main St., in Kingfield.

Boston based blues guitarist Welch is a seasoned veteran of the international blues scene who has carved out a successful living as a highly accomplished and in-demand guitarist. To date, Welch has released six albums under his own name and in 2001, he joined the ranks of New England’s blues musician Sugar Ray and the Bluetones. Welch has received two consecutive Blues Music Award nominations by the Blues Foundation for Instrumentalist-Guitar beginning in 2016.

Chicago based Mike Ledbetter delivered exceptional vocals and rhythm guitar for eight years with the world touring Nick Moss Band. As a trained opera singer and one who has sung in every conceivable genre, Ledbetter channels his range, intonation and phrasing into what he feels is the most emotional music, the blues.

The duo will sign copies of their inspired collaboration on their recently released album of high acclaim and excellent reviews “Right Place, Right Time”.

The gate opens at 3 p.m., on-site parking is free. There will be a beer garden and Rolling Fatties food truck on site. No alcoholic beverages may be brought onto the property.

Tickets cost $12 in advance or $15 at the gate, and children 10 and younger will be admitted free. For advance tickets, call 265-2030.
