Tim O Brien and Friends w/ Kindling Stone
Saturday, December 6th
2pm
Join Tim O Brien and friends Dennis Crouch, Bryan Sutton and Danny Barnes for an unforgettable afternoon of bluegrass underground on Saturday, December 6th at 3pm. Kindling Stone produces spiritual music for reasonable minds: thought-provoking original folk songs, and selections from the Sacred Harp and Shaker traditions. The sound is that of a simpler time - fiddle, mandolin, and reed organ – while the voices ask the listener to consider the ancient, timeless, poetic, and philosophical. Kindling Stone will begin at 2pm
Silver Jews w/ Arnett Hollow

Silver Jews have been talking to the world since 1990, watching that world grow ever-larger with every Silver Jews release. Gradually formed from a beginning tangle of chair scraping, state-motto-twisting-gnostic-cutdowns, cigarette hiss and scissory whelps by David Berman, Steven Malkmus and Bob Nastanovich, Silver Jews have gone on to include nearly thirty members over the course of five albums between 1994 and 2005 certainly enough bulls to qualify them for their own Antelope Stud Lodge. If they wanted it. Arnett Hollow has a unique approach keeps audiences moving and guessing. Drawing from a diverse range of influences from traditional bluegrass, rock, jazz, and world music, the band has crafted a truly original sound in the realm of acoustic music" http://www.myspace.com/arnetthollow
Cadillac Sky
Saturday, February 7th
2pm
"Blind Man Walking" introduced Cadillac Sky as one of bluegrass music's bands to watch. Back with their stellar sophomore release on Skaggs Family Records, "Gravity's Our Enemy," Cadillac Sy takes one creative leap after another, proving that they are not only an impressive bluegrass band, but also true innovators of the genre. "We use our instruments like a chemistry set, playing around and trying to conjure up sounds that create the right atmosphere for each song's lyric," says lead singer and principal songwriter Bryan Simpson, one-fifth of acoustic quintet Cadillac Sky. The band looks as much to Radiohead and Gnarls Barkley for inspiration as it does to Earl Scruggs or Alison Krauss, admiring the way they're able to mix, blend, and stand outside of genres to produce quality music.
