July 22, 2010 JOSH EAGLE & THE HARVEST CITY

Coming to the stage Thursday night at 8:30 pm Josh Eagle and The Harvest City are a community of four. Inspired by the days living alive and well and the honest music of then and now. The Southern Ohio natives are the earnest, dutiful craftsmen that are rare to find these days, as all are from varied musical back rounds.
