The Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame and Museum will host its Winter Warmer Series – promising an intimate bluegrass experience – beginning January 25.
The series starts with The Local Honeys, followed by the Crying Uncle Bluegrass Band on February 8, and Buffalo Wabs and the Price Hill Hustle on February 29.
The cost to attend is $20 per night or $50 to bundle all 3 events. Each show begins at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 6. The event also features a full bar, concessions, and table service.
“Enjoy this unique experience around the music, where we transform our Gallery Room into a café for this series, enabling people to experience the music up close and personal with each artist,” organizers said in a release.
The Local Honeys includes Kentucky natives Montanna Hobbs and Linda Jean Stokley, who have toured with Tyle Childers and Colter Wall. Master songsmith Tom T. Hall said the duo is “a great credit to a wonderful Kentucky tradition.”
The bluegrass community considers The Crying Uncle Bluegrass Band one of the most exciting young groups in acoustic music, blending bluegrass, “Dawg,” and jazz with modern originals. The band hails from northern California, where they are a mainstay on the emerging west coast bluegrass scene.
Buffalo Wabs and The Price Hill Hustle wrap up the series, bringing a “toe-tapping, knee-slapping, boot-stomping kind of sound,” according to the release, which says the band pulls from all sorts of genres – from Lead Belly to John Prine and Woody Guthrie to Willy Tea Taylor – to create something unique and deep-rooted.
