Good Tyme String Band at Kenilworth Public Library

The Kenilworth Public Library has been bringing the Good Tyme String Band back season after season for good reason — the 30-minute acoustic set is free, requires no signup, and works for just about anyone who walks through the door. Union County Life is listing all seven 2026 dates so residents don't have to track them down separately.

The band plays foot-tapping acoustic string music built around banjo. It's the kind of performance where clapping along isn't just tolerated — it's expected. Shows run on the last Wednesday of most months, starting at 11:00 AM, through the end of the year. Each session is self-contained, so attending one doesn't require attending all.

The library is at 548 Boulevard in the heart of Kenilworth. Parking is available on-site. No tickets, no registration — just show up.
