Description:
Up on the Roof presents their September 2021 event on Thursday, September 30, 2021 starting at 5:30 PM on the rooftop of Kent Square in Blacksburg, VA.

Enjoy food, beverages, live music, fun and good friends! Live music will be provided by Fritz Schindler and food will be provided by the Holiday Inn New River Valley Mall.

Up on the Roof is a social event for creative professionals and grad students. The event was designed to bring fun locals, grad students and professionals together for the purposes of socializing and enjoying our downtown venues. We meet on the last Thursday of every month from April through September on the rooftop of the Kent Square parking lot from 5:30-8:00 PM.

Fritz Schindler is a whirlwind of musical enthusiasm. His energetic live shows combine him playing a vast array of traditional Appalachian instruments—mandolin, guitar, hammered dulcimer, bouzouki, banjo, percussion—along with his versatile singing voice and occasionally a few friends. Frequently added into the mix are live-looping and layering techniques, combined together to make a unique and spell-binding experience we like to call Contagious Folk ‘n’ Roll.

Over the years, Fritz has shared the stage with such notable acts as Hawk Nelson, The Vespers, Raymond & Ruth McLain, The New Coon Creek Girls, Nevertheless, BlueTree, Ilia, The Afters, and 7eventh Time Down. In 2014 Fritz began touring with a full backing band, playing concerts, churches, and festivals in Tennessee, West Virginia, and his home states of Virginia and Kentucky. In 2015, Fritz hit the road again with his talented backing band, The Saucy Fellows, as well as playing a few solo shows, both featuring more instrumental songs, live-looping, and as always, the signature smile and warm enthusiasm he brings to every stage.

No matter your age or musical preference, within a few short minutes, Fritz Schindler will have your toes tapping, hands clapping, and before you know it, you’ll probably find yourself singing or dancing along…
