The Banana Slug String Band has been playing music for kids and families for 40 years.
The Slugs are environmental educators who met teaching in Outdoor Education in San Mateo County, deep in the redwood forests. Doug Dirt, Airy Larry, Marine Mark, and Solar Steve (their names representing sun, soil, water and air) are the “real deal.”
With the deep sense of purpose to promote positive environmental messages, these impassioned musicians, songwriters, performers, educators, and eco-warriors have an extraordinary ability to connect with children as they change the world, one child at a time!
The Slugs have brought their musical messages to noted festivals such as the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, High Sierra Music Festival, and their home festival, the Strawberry Music Festival, which they have played over 40 times!
We can’t wait to have the Banana Slug String Band on the Strawberry Stage AGAIN to celebrate their 40th anniversary as a band on Saturday, May 24th! Listen and learn more here.
