Heavily influenced by classic harmony-based rock outfits of the 60s and 70s, November Blue’s unique sound perfectly marries country and roots rock. They blend rich five-part harmony with Class-A musicianship. The six-piece band consists of three guitarists (John Wilcox, Tom Currey, and Dylan Bradley), bassist Brodie Holifield, drummer Dean Maddox, and pedal steel guitarist Alex Barcic. Together they deliver a dynamic live experience that combines modern sounds with nostalgic feel.

🌟 Emma’s Fun-Filled Day on the Trolley Tour! 🌟

Emma had an absolute blast today riding on the Marietta Trolley Tour! 🚋✨

She said her favorite part was the experience of the ride itself — feeling the fun of riding a charming old trolley through town. But what really made the day special was seeing the beautiful Castle 🏰 and hearing fascinating stories about Mound Cemetery, one of the most historic sites in the area.

This tour is perfect for kids ages 5 and up — it’s not just a ride; it’s a living history lesson! Emma loved learning about Marietta, the first permanent settlement in the Northwest Territory, and recognized some of the stories she has learned in school.

If you’re looking for a fun, educational, and family-friendly activity, the Trolley Tour is a fantastic choice to help children connect with local history in a hands-on, memorable way.

Call Visit Marietta Ohio to be like Emma and book your seat! 740-373-5178
