DIXFIELD — The Countryfolk Music Theatre on Route 2 will host Country Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.  July, 26, rain or shine, as stages, spectator building, dance floor and museum are all covered. Two stages of music with back-up bands for vocalists. All country musicians are invited for an afternoon of music which is free to the public.

There will be potluck food, a 50/50 drawing and any donations go directly to the Countryfolk youth music scholarships. Countryfolk serves the counties of Oxford, Franklin and Androscoggin but musicians come from far and wide, including Nova Scotia from time to time.

Larry Bisbee, operator of the venue said,”the new museum will be open all day and all of Countryfolk is free and for families. Bisbee said,”this is the first of two events planned this summer after so many requests to keep the facility open this summer. We’ll be announcing the other one next month as plans are coming together for a two day Labor Day weekend music weekend with some classic cars and a 50s-60s Dance too,” Bisbee said.

He went on to say,”Our music gatherings are meant to offer a summer venue and an opportunity for all country, gospel, bluegrass and folk musicians to have a place to perform and a place for spectators to come and enjoy, for free, the talents of so many wonderful Maine musicians of all ages.” FMI  call Bisbee @ 207-595-3115.
