Ragtime Banjo Band to give free concert

FALLBROOK – The Ragtime Banjo Band will perform a free concert at the Fallbrook Library on Thursday, June 19 at 7 p.m. Audience members will enjoy timeless songs from 1900 to 1940, including “When the Saints go Marching In,” “You are My Sunshine,” “Five Foot Two,” and “Let Me Call You Sweetheart.”

The band, founded by George Yellich, uses the four string banjo that is strummed with a pick. The four string banjo is strictly Americana. One can’t listen to a banjo without smiling and the band passes out sheet music so the audience can sing along.

The concert will take place in the Fallbrook...
