Trinity Episcopal Church will host a performance by On the Trail, a modern acoustic band that explores everything from bluegrass to contemporary pop, from stunning instrumentals to beautiful traditional songs, on Sunday, May 3, at 3 pm.

The group was founded through their love of bluegrass and the band the Punch Brothers. They have already gained recognition and praise for their exploration and strong execution of the challenging music, as well as for their new original music.

On The Trail’s members are Austin Scelzo, fiddle and vocals; Tom Polizzi, mandolin and vocals; Charlie Widmer, guitar and vocals; and Matt Curley, upright bass and vocals.

Most recently, On the Trail had the honor of winning the 2022 Thomas Point Beach Band Competition after participating in 2021’s Telefunken Battle of the Bands at the Podunk Bluegrass Festival. They also were selected as an Emerging Artist at Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival 2023.

Tickets are $25 and available through trinitynewtownct.org/events. Children under 13 will be admitted free.

Plenty of free parking is available behind the church, accessible from 12 Church Hill Road.

For additional information contact the Trinity Church office at 203-426-9070.
