Steep Canyon Rangers in Concert
Steep Canyon Rangers aren’t afraid to experiment with the tried-and-true forms of bluegrass and have affirmed their place as one of the most versatile and idiosyncratic bands in all of contemporary American music. The Grammy Award-winning, North Carolina-based sextet has spent nearly two decades bending and shaping the bluegrass aesthetic, wedding it to elements of pop, country, folk rock, and more to create something original and all their own.
Join us for an evening concert in the Nightingale Sky Room, where the Sierra Nevada provides an unforgettable backdrop to an evening of ambitious string-based music and genre-defying bluegrass.
Doors open at 7 pm with cash bar. Concert at 8 pm.
NOTE: This is not a seated event, concert is standing room only.
