Don’t miss this legend folks. Come on out. Yes, I’m also a fan of James Taylor and Yonder Mountain String Band, and Ralph Stanley, Clinch Mountain Boys and all are worth your attention and attendance.

If you missed him at any Cityfolk Festival or during Cityfolk Bluegrass show-you are in for a real treat. Glad someone can piggyback on the great work Cityfolk does!!

As a volunteer for the Cityfolk Festival, I had the pleasure of meeting him and shaking his hand at the festival last year. Such a gracious gentleman and great performer. Don’t miss it if you have a chance to go.

Even if he does “lose everything”, he will always have far, far more than you have ever had, dan. That includes class.
