The Lost Dogs have teamed up with Concerts on a Hill for a special weekend event, including “electric/acoustic concerts, a songwriting workshop, master classes, a kid’s music class, a party with the Dogs and more.” If you are within driving distance of Boyds, MD (near Washington D.C.) the weekend of June 28-29, you will want to check out this event.
