A family-oriented bluegrass band will perform at Jackson Avenue Coffeehouse on Saturday.

The Ache’n Back Stringband will be performing at 7 p.m. and will be performing old time bluegrass music.

Fiddle player, Ann White said Ache’n Back Stringband is a family and friend band that was formed in 2004.

“We will be playing a variety of songs some bluegrass, old timey songs, folk and a couple modern songs,” White said. ‘It is not something you’re not going to hear on the radio.”

White said they will be performing “Battle of New Orleans,” “Wagon Wheel,” “God’s Got it” and “Hard Hearty Hannah.”

Jeff Derriksen, rhythm and harmonic member, said, “Jackson Avenue Coffeehouse is a lot of fun and has a lot of audience participation.”

Derriksen said people should come because they will have a good time and might find a song or two they will recognize and sing along with.

Members include banjo player, Ralph White; upright bass player, Martha White; singer, Carleen Cain; Derrikson and White.

Laura Aberle, a barista at JAC and a resident of Charleston, said the different performances offer a creative outlet for Charleston and allows people to get involved within their community.

“It is nice to hear live music within the community,” Aberle said.

JAC is located at 708 Jackson Avenue.
