On Friday, October 10, Delaware Friends of Folk will present the first event in their 2025-26 Old State House concert series, inside the Old State House on The Green in Dover. This is the twelfth season in the series which is produced in cooperation with the Delaware Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs and First State National Heritage Park and is supported by a generous grant from the Kent County Fund for the Arts. The one-hour performance will begin at 7:30 pm. The concert is free and open to the public. Seating is limited.
The featured act this month is the Pennsylvania duo Strays & Misfits. What do you get when you blend a punk rocker and a Polish gospel singer? You get pure magic called Strays & Misfits! This married duo met somewhere in the middle and created their own weirdo style of folk music. With Lou Lassiter’s driving guitar, Magda’s soulful voice, and the duo’s raw sound, they guide their listeners through all the feels, writing storyteller songs about relatable life experiences and social topics. The West Grove, PA residents are winners of the 2023 Delmarva Folk Hero contest.
The Old State House concert series is presented by Delaware Friends of Folk. These events are supported by a grant from the Kent County Fund for the Arts, an organization that aims to enhance the quality of life, educate, and broaden perspectives by supporting the arts and arts organizations in Kent County. Support is also provided by the First State National Heritage Park, a partnership of State and City agencies under the leadership of Delaware State Parks and the Delaware Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs. Delaware Friends of Folk are partially supported by a grant from the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts.
