SUMMARY:Those MacDonalds - Concert
DESCRIPTION:Who’s making all that good music – well It’s just “Those MacDonald“ Bob MacDonald on guitar and voice with Glenn MacDonald on guitar and voice have been entertaining audiences around Northborough for many years. Whether performing solo or as a duo or part of different bands they have been part of – they transport their audience down memory lanes with their repertoire of 100s of songs that span many decades and genres.Whether it’s the front porch or the backyard or a bar or open mic or big stage – “Those MacDonalds” show up with their songs and their guitars and start rockin. Bob MacDonald has rocked many venues as part of his former band “Last Man Standing” which had a large following that was Shak’n Rattl’n & Roll’n to the Blues and Rock and Roll and Country songs. Whether it’s an Outlaw Country hit or a Classic rock song – Bob’s voice and guitar chops make every song come alive with energy. Glenn MacDonald has been singing solo and also as a duo with his brother Bob. He has enthralled audiences with his smooth silky voice and sweet sounding guitar. \n\n\n\nGlenn and Bob seamlessly transition between lead and backing vocals and lead and rhythm guitar to render timeless favorite songs in their unique voice. Together they  share beautiful melodies and fun memories through the years and it is still not clear which MacDonald was the favorite son. \n\n\n\nChris MacDonald joins them on base to complete “Those MacDonalds” as nobody is allowed to stay in the family without making some music. He is a bit overwhelmed as his Dad and Uncle’s singing years together is twice his age. Come on down!
