Sean Merritt and Sara Fisher set the stage on fire with a high-voltage Family Day weekend homecoming.

The energy at Dyment Recreation Hall didn’t just rise this week—it exploded. The crowd was absolutely electric as hometown hero Sean Merritt took the stage, proving once and for all that you don’t need to look to the big cities to find world-class performance and raw, undeniable grit. It was a massive thrill for the local fans to see one of their own commanding the room with such authority, turning a standard holiday weekend into a high-octane celebration of homegrown talent.

When Sean Merritt and Sara Fisher locked in as The Birdfolk Buskers, the chemistry was pure sonic gold. Their foot-stomping rhythms and powerhouse harmonies turned the Family Day festivities into an absolute riot of sound that had the entire hall buzzing from the front row to the rafters. They didn’t just play music; they owned the room, bridging the gap between the stage and the seats with a level of passion that left the audience breathless and begging for an encore.

This wasn’t just another gig; it was a total takeover that redefined what local talent looks like. The Buskers brought a “pump” to Dyment Hall that shifted the entire mood of the long weekend, reminding everyone exactly why this duo is the most exciting act in the region right now. A huge thank you goes out to Sean and Sara for bringing that incredible fire to our community—you guys absolutely crushed it!
