The Saline Fiddlers will unveil a new full-length album at their Hometown Show at 7:00pm this Saturday, April 9, at the Ellen Ewing Performing Arts Center at SHS. The show also will feature an opening set from guest artists, Saline Varsity Blues. Tickets can be purchased at the door, or in advance at a discounted rate HERE.
Th Fiddler’s new album, titled “All Together Now,” has a slightly different feel to it from previous releases. It was recorded over the past two years amid COVID restrictions, which inspired the group to work on several of the tracks in smaller sets. The result is a beautiful, intimate feel on many of the tracks. The album brings together some familiar favorites like “Devil Went Down to Georgia” and “Calypso Jam” with some lesser-known treasures, such as the rollicking “Epic Reel” and a cover of John Hiatt's hauntingly beautiful “Before I Go." Copies of the album will be available for sale at the show.

Correction regarding the fire special assessment, council is authorizing ~$646,746 or 1 mill as a special assessment towards the city overall fire budget of $1,086,214. The remainder is funded from General fund.
Regarding the budget, it is more than inflation—proposed new positions are being added; facilities manager and economic development director, also a Water/Waste position (funded with utility fees).
“The SHDA will keep six percent of all donations collected as a fee.” Refers to Curtiss/Mansion, not the well#2 rehab
