ANSONIA - The renovation of Banko’s Music, 360 E. Main St., is nearly complete with the addition of a new storefront sign. It replaces the 70’s “feeling groovy” signage predecessor.

Joe Shapiro of Shelton acquired the 1955-founded Ansonia landmark last year and has since completely renovated the interior retail space, exterior façade and second floor offices, which also double as space for weekly open jam sessions and  music lessons.
A grand opening will be held this summer.
