Breaking up Christmas and BattleAxe Band Thank You Party

 —  —

Oolenoy Community Center, 5301 Dacusville Hwy, Pickens, SC 29671

After a decade of making music together, The BattleAxe Band has decided to no longer perform publicly. To say "Thank You" to our friends and fans, we are hosting a farewell party, and breaking up Christmas potluck and jam. The band will be performing a mini-concert, followed by a music jam and fellowship.

Please bring a dish to share. In order to be “green”, please bring your own plate or bowl and flatware.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you.

-Amy, Brooke, Lucy, and Nancy
