Please see below for general description of how the evening will unfold, and you can leave it to your own imagination for what might happen!

Set 1 ~ 7-7:50 PM: Longtime David Grisman Quintet member and participant in the legendary Garcia-Grisman recordings, Joe Craven leads the charge, bringing Zambi 2.0 to the plate for a homerun! Rest assured, this set will set the bar extremely high for the remainder of the night.

Set 2 ~ 8:10-9:25 PM: Jim Lauderdale leads the second set, bringing an all-star lineup to table for both a bluegrass and an electric portion, Zambi horns and all!

Count/Rico Drums & Percussion ~ 9:30-9:40 PM: Expect to fall right in line for our annual tribute to two of the finest human beings on the earth, percussionist Count M’Butu and drummer Yonrico Scott, who left us way to soon. Never ceases to blow my mind.

Set 3 ~ 10-11:30 PM: Super Jam featuring Rev. Jeff Mosier, Vince Herman, Ronnie McCoury, Joe Craven, and the whole gang! That about sums it up!
