Who we are

The Band

The Barn Band started the way the name suggests: in a barn in Thetford, Vermont, rehearsing for a one-off show at the Thetford Hill Church Music Extravaganza. We had so much fun that the music never stopped.

The barn has a name - the Grateful Shed - which tells you most of what you need to know about the setlist. A year and change later, the one-off has turned into church halls, school lawns, and anywhere else that'll have us.
