Harmony on the Harbor is sponsored by the Beaufort County Arts Council. It gets locals down to the waterfront to enjoy the new bandstand and visit with the neighbors a bit. On August 18, a beautiful Pamlico River Sunday afternoon, Molasses Creek performed.
Molasses Creek is from Ocracoke, a fine little island off North Carolina’s coast. They’re a wonderful string band with musical influences from all over the world. They are Gary Mitchell on guitar, Dave Tweedie on fiddle, Marcy Brenner on mandolin, Lou Castro on guitar, and Gerald Hampton on bass. You may have heard them up and down the East Coast or on Prairie Home Companion.
