Enjoy samples of vendors' produce, meats and tempeh down in the Farmers Market Pavilion at the Eno River Farmers Market; try pairing them with delightful sides and sauces.  The Carrborators will be heating up the sound waves with their musical stylings, and you just might get some new ideas for all of your July 4 entertaining.

The Bulltown Strutters were organized to liven up Hillsborough's first Handmade Puppet Parade several years ago.  The group has grown to around 20 members, and this New Orleans-style second parade jazz band is in constant demand.  Join them from 6:30-8:30pm for a Last Fridays celebration on Tryon St. at Hillsborough Presbyterian Church, where the scoops of ice cream will be replaced by scoops of blueberries for this month.  Wear your parade costume if you like as they will encourage you to join in the march.

Johnson’s Crossroad

Johnson's Crossroad has been described by friends and fans as everything from Appalachian Soul" to "Hillbilly Metal." The band blends blues, roots-rock, folk, bluegrass, and Appalachian Old Time for a sound that The Daily Times’ Steve Wildsmith calls “both mournful and jubilant, breezy and graveyard serious.”
