Presale and Ticket Information:

Heralds of the Carolina sound for more than two decades, Steep Canyon Rangers find themselves in a unique seat at the table for their new release, Morning Shift, released September 8, 2023. On this record, the GRAMMY-winners tell stories that both honor their roots, and expand upon the living art of bluegrass music, all while solidifying their reputation as some of the most influential songwriters in Americana today.

Nelson Ledges Quarry Park (NLQP) was an operational rock quarry for nearly 20 years until the late 1950s when mining operations accidentally tapped into an underground freshwater spring. Much like a dinghy with a hole, NLQP quickly filled with water, making it impossible for the miners to continue their work. Operations were shuttered, and local phreaks of all sorts became the only visitors to the 250-acre hidden lake near Garrettsville, Ohio.

On this July 4th, 2024, we light up the skies not just for the fireworks, but for a luminary in the world of bluegrass and Americana, the incomparable Peter Rowan. Born on Independence Day, Peter’s music embodies the spirit of freedom, innovation, and a boundless love for the rich tapestry of American roots music. Today, we celebrate his enduring influence, legendary collaborations, and the songs that have shaped generations of music lovers.

Today, we celebrate the birth of a man who was the quiet, steady pulse behind some of the most beloved music in American history. John Kahn, born on this day, was not just a bassist; he was the heartbeat of Jerry Garcia's myriad musical endeavors, the unassuming yet indispensable presence that grounded Garcia's flights of fancy.
