HVBA December Concert – Mando Madness


After a four-year hiatus, Mando Madness is back at the HVBA! Veteran Hudson Valley-based picker and Too Blue mandolinist Mike Sassano again assembles a crack team of eight-string aficionados for a night of mandolin mania. This year's show will feature Wayne Fugate, Barry Mitterhoff, Korey Brodsky, Larry Cohen, and special guests. Don't miss this show!

Friday - December 15th @ 7:30pm
Unitarian Fellowship
67 S. Randolph Avenue
Poughkeepsie, NY

Tickets at Door
$20/Members
$25/Non-Members

Back in 2012, the HVBA was treated to its first Mando Madness concert.

It was so good that we repeated the concert in 2019.

And so it is NO surprise that we have invited them back for More Mando Madness!!! See you on December 15th.


The HVBA hosts two monthly jam sessions!
