Songwriters and performers Clint and Sandy Hunt, along with their seven children, Jessica, Jennifer, Joshua, Jonathan, Jordan, Justin and Jamison, have released four albums and have won numerous awards in fiddle, Irish dance and singing contests around the nation and the world.

The family recently completed three seasons at Busch Gardens, Williamsburg, producing and performing four different shows. Their versatility and popularity with audiences led to the development of several themed shows.

The Hunt Family Fiddlers have performed in Scotland, opened three consecutive years for the Virginia Symphony at the "Symphony Under the Stars" concert and are now touring the nation in theatres, colleges, festivals, churches and various other venues.

The other musicians scheduled to perform during the upcoming concert season are Two on Tap, Monroe Crossing (making a return appearance), Classical Gas, and Take Me Home: The Best of John Denver (Jim Curry).

All concerts are at the Hastings Middle School.
