Thriving Thursday Features October Sun

October Son will be performing Thursday evening (June 15) in Litchfield’s Central Park from 6-to-8 p.m. for Thriving Thursday. The Meeker County American Dairy Association will serve ice cream cones.

Steve Michaud has been a part of October Son for about 14 years. He says he first started playing guitar when his dad, Bob Greenhow, taught him. He was about 13-years-old at the time, and then when he was about 16, Bob’ band – the Crow River Ramblers – needed a singer, so Steve joined the band, and that group eventually evolved into a band called Beats Workin’.

Michaud says he played in a few other bands over the years, and eventually ended up in the band October Son which turned into a trio a couple years ago and they mostly play semi-unplugged easy listening classic rock and some country music. He says they do private parties, weddings, community events, and often play on outdoor patios at clubs during the summer months and at wineries.
