ELLERBE — The Luke Vuncannon Band played the last concert of the 2024 season of Pickin’ in the Park on Thursday.

The set list included a variety of classic country, classic rock and blues covers from the likes of Delbert McClinton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Merle Haggard and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Guitarist and singer Luke Vuncannon started the music series in his hometown in September, starting with bluegrass, followed by a night of classic rock for the second show.

Last month, Vuncannon again performed with his bluegrass band, the Axe Handlers, turning the stage over to Sonshine Ministries for a few songs, with the Cameronian Boys closing the show.
