We've got some great music and musicians for you to hear on the waterfront in downtown Washington! It's a great blend of styles and sounds that will mesmerize, entertain, energize and astound. You can find the full schedule here. While you're clicking on links, though, why not go to some of these bands' websites and get a taste of what you'll be hearing on April 28?

 

Mandolin Orange
"Love it ... It has the plainspoken, mournful power of bluegrass and the elegance and intricacy of American classical, like Copland or Barber. Fantastic record." -Rosanne Cash on Mandolin Orange's CD Haste Make/Hard Hearted Stranger

Mount Moriah
"The sound of country being rocked at the foundationsÉa country template branded with rock tones, both tempered by punk impulses." -indyweek.com

Hoopdrum
HoopDrum gives mesmerizing live performances, a flow of hoop dance and percussion. Be sure to be at Festival Park at dusk, as HoopDrum wows the crowd with a fire-hooping performance. Throughout the day, they'll also have hoops for anyone to play with!

   

Carolina Still
Carolina Still blends musical styles such as old-time, bluegrass, country, blues, rockabilly, punk, and many more. Their sound is deeply rooted in traditional music but is delivered with a more progressive edge and a great amount of energy.

Onward, Soldiers
"Moving with the laid-back rollick of The Marshall Tucker Band and the swaggering electric chomp of Creedence Clearwater Revival, Onward, Soldiers funnels Gerard's words through old, shuffling rhythms and bursts of rock aggression. This is roots rock with a Southern soul and a restless heart." -indyweek.com

BCTMA
BCTMA jam session, Open Mic Variety Show, and more!
