When Ameripolitan Award winning artist Lara Hope teams up with internationally touring, upright bass-slapping pro Matt “The Knife” Goldpaugh, they become…THE GOLD HOPE DUO!

This husband and wife team are hitting it hard, spreading “Merry-Cana”, a term they coined to describe their genre. They will be bringing their unique brand of stripped-down, upbeat Rockabilly, Rhythm & Blues, Country, Folk and a pinch a humor to a town near you!

Living by the motto “If you can’t do it, kazoo it!”, this pair is sure to make you laugh, dance, and sing along!

*You can also find the GHD playing worldwide with their full band, Lara Hope & The Ark-Tones, supporting acts such as The Brian Setzer Orchestra, Reverend Horton Heat, and The Blasters.

We do have a few changes in store for this year’s concerts to ensure the safety of our guests, musicians, and staff:

• Reservations are required and please be prepared to show us your ticket upon arrival;
• We ask that your party stay seated 6 feet away from other guests;
• Due to ongoing COVID-19 health and safety protocols, food and drink will not be permitted at this season of concerts.
• Unvaccinated guests must wear their masks throughout the duration of each concert.

Thanks for your help as we provide a fun and safe season of concerts!

This project is made possible with funds from the Decentralization Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature and administered in Columbia County by Greene County Council on the Arts dba CREATE Council for Resources to Enrich the Arts, Technology & Education. We would also like to thank Bank of Greene County for their generous sponsorship of this season of concerts.
