At the Abraham Staats House: Music of the American Revolution with Anne and Ridley Enslow
Celebrate 250!! Music of the American Revolution Saturday, March 14, 2026 1:30 PM ~ 4PM at the Abraham Staats House
17 von Steuben Lane South Bound Brook, NJ 08880
Featuring Colonial Musicians Anne and Ridley Enslow
Join Anne and Ridley Enslow for a concert of lively 18th-century songs about the struggle for American independence. The show will include “liberty songs,” humorous ballads lampooning the British troops, and songs celebrating American victories, plus drinking songs and a dance tune or two. There will even be a song by a signer of the Declaration of Independence about the so-called Battle of the Kegs.
As always, Anne and Ridley perform in 18th-century dress and on instruments of the period—hammered dulcimer and a 1776 violin. They will have their little dancing man called a limberjack, who pleases audience members from 9 to 90! This program was created for the celebration of the U.S. Semiquincentennial. You’re invited!
House open for seating at 1:30PM; performance at 2PM. Afterwards, tours of this historic house available until the house closes at 4PM.
Admission: $10 per person with advance reservation / $15 at the door
Seating is limited: Advance reservations encouraged at EventBrite or at www.staatshouse.org
