Sam Bush is the perfect ambassador for bluegrass in the 21st century. He was a founding member of the New Grass Revival and has been called a modern day Bill Monroe. Throughout his career, he has acknowledged tradition while pushing mountain music into the realms of rock, jazz, reggae, and Afro-pop. He has shared a stage with some of the biggest names in acoustic and folk music, including Emmylou Harris, Lyle Lovett, and David Grisman. He has inspired nationally known bands including the String Cheese Incident, Yonder Mountain String Band, and Nickel Creek.

Three Big Days! Friday, Saturday and Sunday

We meet on the third Saturday of July for our regular jam session where we play primarily contra dance tunes, Irish and old time songs. Bluegrass, gospel and other acoustic music are certainly welcome, we just tend towards the tunes in our tune book.

Join this group and look in the files area to see sheet music and midi files for our regular tunes.
