“On behalf of the Chocolate Church Arts Center, I’d like to thank you for your participation in our Summer Concert series on the Bath waterfront.  We had one of the largest crowds ever the night the Saltwater Hillbilly appeared, and the audience feedback has been excellent.  I watched with pleasure as people joined in song when you asked, and especially when so many children in the crowd joined together to dance in front of the stage. The “rattling eggs” passed out to the audience to keep time was fantastic! You had them from the first note. Wrapping up the concert with a Conga Line was excellent. What a treat for the audience to dance across the waterfront pier and up the grassy hillside.  Your talent and clever programming came together for a memorable evening and sent many of us home replaying our favorite songs in our heads. Thank you again for making this special night even more special, and for sharing your skills as a musician and comedian with all of us.  If the Chocolate Church is fortunate enough to be able to present another Summer Concert series for the City of Bath next season, please be assured that we will want to bring the Saltwater Hillbilly back for another fun performance. 

Best regards,

Thom Watson
