    The Bill Monroe Bluegrass Celebration features Del McCoury, The Grascals, James Monroe, The Steeldrivers, Infamous Stringdusters, Jesse McReynolds, Dailey & Vincent, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver. A night of great music that you won't want to miss! 

    As singer, songwriter, bandleader, showman, and instrumentalist, no individual is so closely identified with an American musical style as Bill Monroe, the Father of Bluegrass Music. For more than half a century, he shaped bluegrass with his forceful mandolin playing; high, lonesome singing; and mastery of his band, the Blue Grass Boys. In doing so, he gave older country sounds new life; gave the mandolin a new role as a lead instrument in country, pop, and rock; and set standards for musicians as diverse as the Everly Brothers, Elvis Presley, George Jones, and rock star Jerry Garcia.
