“Mountain Heart is thrilled to be invited back to perform in what can only be described as the most beautiful and inspirational performance space we have ever played in over our 11 years together. To be involved with such a stellar group of co-performers on this bill and to have our performances taped for national PBS presentation is the icing on the cake. This is a performance that should not be missed. We are bringing our “A+” game that day!!”

-Mountain Heart

“Out of all the exotic places we have performed, no place compares to our experience “Down Under”…at Bluegrass Underground.There is real magic when you combine stalagtites, hotdogs, and hot picking. You have to see it to believe it!”

- Sandy Cherryholmes
