The Music at Joanna Furnace event will return to Historic Joanna Furnace, 1250 Furnace Road, Geigertown, on Friday, June 5, from 4 to 9 p.m. This year's event will feature not only an evening of music, but it will also include craft vendors, lawn games, and festival foods and drinks.

The event will kick off at 4 p.m. with DJ G. Yoder from Morgantown, providing a variety of folk, bluegrass, and Irish music. The featured group, the Get Reels, will take the stage at 6 p.m.

The Get Reels is a Celto-eclectic band originally formed in Nashville, Tenn., in 2010. It plays Celto-eclectic music, reflecting various sounds and styles. The band's repertoire includes jigs, reels, ballads, bluegrass music, gypsy jazz, country music, and originals. Today the Reading-based band includes Gideon Alden, Celtic flute, vocals, and percussion; Dianne Garzarelli Degler, vocals, percussion, and stringed instruments; and Jack Loughead, electric bass, standup bass, and vocals. Rebecca Mogey, one of the band's composers, sings and plays the fiddle and mandolin, and Will Mogey, who also composed some of the band's music, plays the guitar, banjo, and mandolin, and also sings. Sometimes band members also play the bouzouki. Band members alternate vocal parts and sometimes sing in five-part harmonies.

In addition to appearing at Joanna Furnace, the Get Reels has performed at Berks Fiddle Fest, the Middle Tennessee Highland Games, Flanagan's Pub in Shillington, Jim Dietrich Park, schools, and a multitude of other venues.

Also during Music at Joanna Furnace, volunteers from Hay Creek Valley Historical Association will offer food items such as chicken tenders, hot dogs, pulled pork sandwiches, soups, french fries, homemade baked goods, ice cream sundaes, coffee, iced tea, lemonade, and sodas. Detwiler Brewing will sell its ale.

Craft vendors will sell patriotic, primitive, and home decor items, along with wood crafts, botanical crafts, T-shirts, chocolates and other candy, and more.
