Hubbardston is proud to celebrate one of its own. Brad Kilchermann has been inducted into the Michigan Country Music Hall of Fame, and now, visitors driving into the village will see that honor reflected right on our welcome signs.

The recognition came to the village's attention when Jim Kilchermann, Brad's brother, presented the idea at a regular board meeting. The Kilchermann family generously donated the updated signs.

More Than a Hall of Famer

Brad's love for music goes well beyond the stage. He performs with his band, Muddy River Band and Friends, playing country music throughout the region. You can follow the band and stay up to date on upcoming shows through their Facebook page.

Brad also regularly visits assisted living and retirement homes in the area to play music for residents — bringing live performances directly to those who might not otherwise get the chance to enjoy them. It's a reflection of the kind of person Brad is and the values Hubbardston is proud to call its own.

Next time you're passing through Hubbardston, keep an eye out for the updated signs and join us in celebrating Brad's incredible achievement.
