CONCERT: Martin Hayes & Dennis Cahill

Join American guitarist Dennis Cahill and Irish fiddle aficionada Martin Hayes as they explore the rising and falling melodies that enchant their audiences and hold them spellbound with every fiery performance. This internationally renowned duo creates musical landscapes that soar with pure, distilled beauty. Possessing a rare musical kinship, the two act as jazz masters, weaving notes together into sounds that expand and contract with intensity in slow-building pieces. The dynamics and exquisite tone of these modern classicists make them an irresistible act, one that remains with you long after the end of the evening.

CONCERT: Aaron Goldberg Trio

A sizzling night of jazz! Aaron Goldberg’s bread-and-butter jazz vocabulary and his mastery of blues and standards are second to none. Spontaneously sculpting every bar, he revels in the lesser-explored corners of jazz repertoire. Hailed by Down Beat for his “quick-witted harmonic reflexes, fluid command of line and cut-to-the chase sense of narrative logic,” Goldberg has made his mark as one of the genre’s most compelling pianists. From Brazilian ballads to roaring bebop, Goldberg’s trio brings wit and explosive chops to the music at hand – speaking from within the tradition while making their own fresh imprint upon it.

CONCERT: Jesse Cook

Spend an unforgettable evening with guitar virtuoso Jesse Cook, a master of flamenco and jazz rhythms that he intertwines with styles from around the globe.  The Juno Award (Canada’s Grammy) winner’s newest project, One World, unites music from every corner with electronic textures and beats, where sitars and violin gorgeously share space with synthesizers in sonic tapestries. Cook’s performances are a rich and inspiring mix of music punctuated by the astounding guitar work of one of the most influential figures in nuevo flamenco. “Jesse Cook plays with a proficiency and style that most guitarists can only conjure up in their sleep” (Tucson Lifestyle).

CONCERT: Rhythmic Circus

Groove to the beat! Rapid-fire tap dancing and furious funk dominate the stage in Rhythmic Circus’s award-winning Feet Don’t Fail Me Now! These world-class hoofers from Minneapolis hit the road armed with a trunk full of tap shoes and funky costumes. If the seven-piece brass band weren’t enough, there comes Aaron “Heatbox” Heaton the incomparable human beat-box. Genre-hopping music and percussive dance create an infectious rhythm highlighted by taps, shuffles and stomps and punctuated by the clangs, riffs and refrains of the group’s lively band. Rhythmic Circus is a funky, edgy, and explosive extravaganza for all ages.

CONCERT: Dervish

From jam sessions at neighborhood pubs in Ireland to performing for the Chinese government on a national errand, this group has established itself as a forerunner in the traditional music world for more than two decades. Dervish, whose name refers to any group of spiritual people who become enraptured by music, brings a world of excitement to its shows. Its performances are a myriad of tones and moods ranging from high energy tunes played with fluidity and intuitiveness, to beautifully measured songs, to charming lyrics of life and love, to inspiring melodies, all drawn together by lead vocalist Cathy Jordan’s masterful stage presence.

Big Laurel River Toddler Ramble hike

Hike on TUESDAY, MARCH 8th at 10:30am
BIG LAUREL RIVER TODDLER RAMBLE

“*The map on hikeitbaby.com is WRONG (again! Someday I’ll get this right…) Google Laurel River Store (5150 Old 25/70), and then park in the dirt lot on the side of Old 25/70. If you are coming from Asheville, it’ll be on the left BEFORE crossing the bridge and reaching the store.

This is a toddler-led stroll along a easy, wide dirt path next to the Big Laurel River. Suitable for jogging strollers as well.”
