The Emmitt Nershi Band will kick things off for us on December 16th. With years of collective know-how under their belts, Drew Emmitt and Bill Nershi exemplify forward-thinking modern bluegrass musicians. As linchpins of two legendary jam-bands (Drew with Leftover Salmon and Bill with the String Cheese Incident) both have perfected the stadium-filling, high-profile rock ‘n’ roll thing. But, along the way, they honed their songwriting chops and studied the bluegrass, rock and jazz masters they admire. Above all, the duo shares a commitment to keeping music human-scaled and honest. Their virtuosic sound is balanced by distinctly un-flashy playing that comes from years of experience.
Can't wait to see you out there for an awesome winter season!
