Seldom Scene w/ Steep Canyon Rangers
Where: The Birchmere
Date: 2008-05-31 19:30:00
Type:
Since its inception in 1971, the Seldom Scene has thrived on playing bluegrass a little differently than everyone else. If other bands used a fiddler, the Seldom Scene used a Dobro; if others relied on old standards, the Seldom Scene played rock classics like J.J. Cale's "After Midnight." Through skilled musicianship and an urban approach to bluegrass, the Seldom Scene has become one of the most influential – if not the most influential – bluegrass band of the last 30 years. From Asheville, North Carolina, Steep Canyon Rangers are the International Bluegrass Music Association's 2006 Emerging Artists of the Year. Their recent recordings have risen to the top of industry charts and can been heard on bluegrass & satellite radio. They have appeared several times on the Grand Ole Opry and often share stages with Doc Watson, Del McCoury and Tim O'Brien. For an evening of high-octane entertainment, catch the Rangers LIVE!!
