Before this land was known as Florida, or Polk County, the area was inhabited by Seminoles and other Indigenous tribes. &nbsp;Learn some of their history in a guided tour led by the Polk County History Center&#39;s Cultural Resources Coordinator.<span fr-original-style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.3); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-kerning: none;" style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.3); text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-kerning: none; box-sizing: inherit;">This guided tour was arranged specifically for the UUCL Service Auction and is open to all - bring a friend! &nbsp;The tour is family friendly.

Even the expansive “progressive bluegrass” label doesn’t come close to capturing their musical scope.</div><div style="font-size:12pt;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;-webkit-tap-highlight-color:rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.3);-webkit-text-size-adjust:auto;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;text-decoration:none;word-spacing:1px;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);box-sizing:inherit;line-height:1.5">Chris Sartori's upright bass anchors everything with an undeniable, articulate groove. Dan Bui's mandolin is crisp and striking. With Kathleen Parks on fiddle and Anh Phung on flute, melodies are at constant play, layered with musical textures and solo trading, somewhere between bluegrass and jazz. Kathleen's vocals are an instrument unto herself: equal parts mystery and power, surrounded by the voices of her bandmates, who bring harmonies, unities, whistles, and haunts!</div><div style="font-size:12pt;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;-webkit-tap-highlight-color:rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.3);-webkit-text-size-adjust:auto;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;text-decoration:none;word-spacing:1px;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);box-sizing:inherit;line-height:1.5">In a world that needs TLC more than ever, Twisted Pine offers a night of exultant travels across time and place, to mountains, cities and back porches where songs bring tenderness, love and relief. All in all, this new album and this tour bring the sound of a band that invites you to Love Your Mind.</div><div style="font-size:12pt;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;-webkit-tap-highlight-color:rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.3);-webkit-text-size-adjust:auto;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;text-decoration:none;word-spacing:1px;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);box-sizing:inherit;line-height:1.5">Learn more at <a href="https://www.twistedpineband.com/" style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:1rem;text-decoration-color:currentcolor;-webkit-user-select:auto;box-sizing:inherit" target="_blank">www.twistedpineband.com</a></div><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mbOYObkINwKEy2xte1EvC4tYSWQ_9gXX" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration-color:initial;-webkit-user-select:auto;box-sizing:inherit" target="_blank">Video clip 1</a><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CNFUoyqBklOOSziq9FHL4yC3agoMtL0y" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration-color:initial;-webkit-user-select:auto;box-sizing:inherit" target="_blank">Video clip 2</a>
