Carolyn Ramsay Band – May 17th

The Wildcat Inn and Tavern Presents DINE AND DANCE CONCERT with THE CAROLYN RAMSAY BAND at The Wildcat Inn & Tavern in Jackson, NH.

The Carolyn Ramsay Band hailing from the Lakes Region of New Hampshire is a regional favorite. Known for their soft rock hits from the 60s and 70s, groovy jams with guitar legend Chuck Farrell of “the Once an Outlaw Band”, and upbeat dance classics. Band leader Carolyn Ramsay is an accomplished guitarist and singer with a captivating and warm presence and a vocal range which lends itself very well to her taste in music, which ranges broadly across the musical landscape of the 60s and 70s including the hits from the likes Stevie Nicks to Melissa Ethridge and Janis Joplin. A fun band to enjoy whether dining or dancing. Join the fun and get your groove on.

This is a show that has something for everyone young and old!
