Guess who's coming to play? The Grascals! Friday night the 25th of
February at 7:30 PM. Tickets are only $30.00 + tax and are available
in the store or over the phone with your credit card.

Great musicians will always find a way to make good music, but for
great musicians to make great music, they must form a bond – one that,
more often than not, goes beyond the purely musical to the personal.
For The Grascals, that bond has been forged at the intersection of
personal friendships, shared professional resumes and an appreciation
for the innovative mingling of bluegrass and country music that has
been a hallmark of the Nashville scene for more than forty years. As
their releases prove, The Grascals’ rare musical empathy gives them an
unerring ear for just the right touch to illuminate each offering’s
deepest spirit - whether they’re digging into one of their original
songs or reworking a bluegrass classic or pop standard.

Vocally, the trio of Terry Eldredge, Jamie Johnson and Terry Smith are
tighter than ever, cutting loose on driving solo vocals and soaring
trios with equal fire and passion. As an instrumental unit, The
Grascals have never sounded sharper, with mandolin ace Danny Roberts,
fiddler Jeremy Abshire and banjo player Kristin Scott Benson leading
the charge. As a result, their cutting-edge modern bluegrass is
delivered with a deep knowledge of, and admiration for, the work of
the music’s founding fathers. Timely yet timeless, The Grascals make
music that is entirely relevant to the here and now, yet immersed in
traditional values of soul and musicianship. It’s a unique sound that
has earned two of their previous releases (THE GRASCALS, 2005 and LONG
LIST OF HEARTACHES, 2006) Grammy® nominations for International
Bluegrass Music Association's Best Bluegrass Album.

The Grascals are among the most beloved and acclaimed bands on today’s
bluegrass scene, having won SPBGMA’s Bluegrass Band of the Year award
in 2010, the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Emerging
Artist of the Year award in 2005 and earning its Entertainer of the
Year honor in both 2006 and 2007.

NOTE: They did it again at the 2011 SPBGMA's! Winners of Banjo
Performer of the year, Mandolin Performer of the year and Instrumental
Group of the Year!!!! Congratulations!

See you here!
