Saturday

Driftwood Radio is a virtuosic exploration of melodic and rhythmic fragments, influenced by flamenco, blues, tango, and imaginary folk music traditions. The performance includes complex guitar compositions, existential lyrical impulses, and boomerang loop arrangements. 
Guitarist Miles Pearce has studied classical, jazz, folk and popular styles, Hindustani classical music, flamenco, Brazilian samba, Argentine tango, South Indian Karnatic vocal music, West African rhythms, composition, music theory, ethnomusicology, and experimental music.

The Skyline Country Cloggers, based in Crozet, Virginia, is a non-profit club for the purpose of promoting and continuing the rich heritage of American clog dancing.

Wicked Olde. Our sound may best be described as eclectic. Very, very eclectic. And old. From Big Walter Horton to Hank Williams, Sr., Jackson Browne to Bill Monroe, George Gershwin to Gordon Lightfoot, Bluegrass to Blues, Pop to Folk, Old-timey and Appalachian standards that'll make you nostalgic, to lively Celtic jigs and reels that'll blow your socks off.

Sunday

Vicky Lee was originally smitten by Celtic music in the mid-80’s while attending the festivals at Wolf Trap.  Her Scots grandmother would doubtless have told her it was in the blood, but she was captivated forever by the shifting rhythms, imagery, and evocative moods belonging to the Celts.  This grew into a profound love for the Celtic harp, and setting her upon the path of a modern-day troubadour.  Vicky combines her respect for the Celtic tradition with a keen sense of melody, inventiveness, and virtuosity.  One of her favorite sayings is “Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast.”

The Rivanna Winds will be playing a wide variety of blues, gospel, ragtime, marches, polkas, and waltzes. Come enjoy the music while supporting local artists and businesses! 

Otra Vez inspires the listener with Argentine tango dance classics, existential waltzes, and original compositions. Featuring David Jacobs on drums, Miles Pearce on guitar, and Matty Metcalfe on accordion, Otra Vez was born out of a chance musical encounter on the dusty streets of central Appalachia.

Nobody’s Business hails from the Grayson Highlands mountain region of Southwest Virginia, where the state borders North Carolina and Tennessee. The band is steeped in the traditions of rural “Old-time” mountain music that has been passed down through generations in this unique area of the Blue Ridge mountains. While often lumped in by casual listeners outside the region with its musical offspring bluegrass, old-time string band music developed in the nineteenth century, when European and African musical styles converged in America’s first frontier, the Blue Ridge. Predominantly fiddle- and banjo-driven, old-time is what luminary cultural scholar and advocate Joe Wilson described as “frontier music,” primarily intended for dancing and entertainment at house parties, community gatherings, and jam sessions.
