Live Music

We got some awesome shows nearby in the near future.

The second concert at the Blue Ridge Music Center at 7 p.m. June 6 features gospel greats Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver and the Paschall Brothers. Tickets are $15 at the gate. 12 and under admitted free. 7-9 p.m.; concert seating begins at 5:30. Free Gospel Workshop preceding at 5 p.m. Seating limited. Call to reserve seating (276) 236-5309.

Sunken Garden Sundays at Nesselrod on the New present our inaugural performance on June 7th featuring the award winning Blue-Grass/New Grass stylings of Raleigh-based Chatham County Line, an all-acoustic band comprised of guitarist/lead vocalist Dave Wilson, bassist Greg Readling, fiddler/mandolin player John Teer and banjoist Chandler Holt. Chatham County Line is fresh off a whirlwind of critical and commercial success in Europe following the release of Amerikabesok, their album with Norwegian legend Jonas Fjeld.

Opening band for Chatham County Line is the Harwell-Grice Band featuring our pal PJ on the bass.

I love Chatham County Line and I've never been to the BRMC, so this might be a serious weekend for Bluegrass.

The Infamous Stringdusters play there June 21!

The B&B folks are working on their stage. I saw it ... not sure it'll be 100% ready in time for the first show, but it'll be ready enough.

Fiddlers conventions fire up this weekend. Mount Airy Friday-Saturday (June 5-6). You could make a day of it Saturday. Go to the fiddlers convention during the day, then scoot by the BRMC that evening.
