An old-fashioned hoedown

Grab your partner, do-si-do, and come on down to an old-fashioned hootenanny at the Living Room when Astrograss promenades into town on Nov. 18 for a special Thanksgiving hoedown.

Sing-a-longs, hands-on instrument demos, and dance contests are but a few of the events to welcome the audience to this family concert. Fans can expect favorite tunes about food, American history, animals and holiday meals, and table manners.

Tweens and adults sing along to the eclectic mix of bluegrass and original songs.

Astrograss at The Living Room, Nov. 18, 2 pm. Admission is $10. All ages welcome.

The Living Room [154 Ludlow St. at Stanton Street in the Bowery, (212) 533–7237, www.livingroomny.com].
