Will McLean Foundation Audible Art Series at Fogartyville presents the finest of Florida’s acoustic artists — artists who share our vision of saving Florida through music.
Frankie Jay and the Chicken Parade plays music that is a little bit folk, a little bit bluegrass, and a smattering of rock and roll. It’s a curious group of like-minded musicians with a particular sense of humor and humanity. Frank Julian, AKA Frankie Jay, leads the parade, followed closely by Curtis Wayne Schaper on bass, Pasco Paul Belmore on dobro, and Ron Townsend on percussion. Frankie is an award-winning songwriter with an excellent voice, who clearly enjoys leading this band of musicians and those that can be persuaded to add to their ranks at various events. At any performance, other musicians may march along with the parade, always in time and frequently providing harmony.
Established in 1990, the Will McLean Foundation is a non-profit organization whose goals are to provide for research, education, performance and training to promote understanding and appreciation of the works of Will McLean and of other Florida artists. They have just recently taken over operation of the Sertoma Ranch in Brooksville.
