Tiger Maple String Band Under the Tent at Schenley Plaza

Spend a summer evening enjoying live acoustic music at Schenley Plaza with Tiger Maple String Band, a Northwest Pennsylvania-based ensemble dedicated to preserving traditional and original old-time music. The band brings together skilled musicians performing fiddle, banjo, bass, and guitar, creating rich harmonies and energetic performances rooted in Appalachian traditions. You'll hear fiddle tunes, mountain ballads, coal-mining songs, and original compositions that blend historical musical styles into a heartfelt set. This free outdoor concert welcomes families of all ages—no tickets required. The artists accept tips both online and at the event, with a suggested contribution of $15, though any amount is appreciated. The concert typically goes ahead rain or shine, except during severe storms; check the Calliope House website and social media if weather becomes a concern. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, settle into the plaza, and enjoy an evening of community music and good feelings.
