The Travelin’ McCourys: Thursday, March 19, 2026 at Ardmore Music Hall in Ardmore, PA. The McCoury brothers- Ronnie (mandolin) and Rob (banjo) – were born into the bluegrass tradition. Talk about a source abundant and pure: their father, Del, is among the most influential and successful musicians in the history of the genre. Years on the road with Dad in the Del McCoury Band honed their knife-edge chops, and encouraged the duo to imagine how traditional bluegrass could cut innovative pathways into 21st century music.
Big Richard: Saturday, March 21, 2026 at 118 North in Wayne, PA. Big Richard is mandolinist Bonnie Sims, Eve Panning, bassist Hazel Royer, Dr. Joy Adams. Big Richard is currently touring their debut full-length studio album Girl Dinner, following a whirlwind year that included performances on PBS’ the Cavern Sessions, NPR’s World Cafe, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Delfest, Bourbon and Beyond, Jam Cruise, and New Year’s Eve at the Ryman in Nashville.Â
