Description

Stone Hall Sessions presents Washboard Hank & Reverend Ken live in concert as the fourth concert in their 2026 Season. Almost 40 years ago, Hank Fisher and Ken Ramsden, two creative Peterborough residents, produced a remarkable musical coupling. Their performance art incorporated everything from classical music to bluegrass gospel street preaching in a spontaneous, antic conflagration. Their interactions generated whimsically-comic energy. They toured all over North America by whatever means were available, putting on 'Gospel Gumbo' street shows from Vancouver to Calgary to Edmonton, from Nashville to Memphis, and from Oregon to San Francisco. Their stage names varied depending on proximity to law enforcement agents, high grade medicinal spirits and quality pharmaceuticals, and they were known as “The Duke of Washboardom” and “The Parson of Panhandledom.”
