Founded in 2000, Monroe Crossing plays 150 shows every year, including The Big Top Chautauqua in Bayfield WI, Branson’s Silver Dollar City, the legendary Ozark Folk Center in Mountain View AR, The Kennedy Center in Washington DC, and a command performance at Carnegie Hall this year following their debut concert there in 2013!
They are the only bluegrass band ever inducted into the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame (2007).
Monroe Crossing’s two-set performance typically features original compositions and unique arrangements of bluegrass classics such as “Orange Blossom Special” and “I Am A Man of Constant Sorrow,” and gospel favorites like “I’ll Fly Away,” “Amazing Grace” and “Down To The River To Pray.” And don’t be surprised if they include some great “crossing” tunes like “My Girl” or “At Last,” both found on their 2005 CD “Somebody Like You.”
Schedule: 6 pm VIP’s Door, 7pm General and Premium Ticket Holders Door, 7:30 pm opening act, 8:10 pm Monroe Crossing (Two Sets)
Join us as we prepare for 2015 Podunk Bluegrass Festival with this show. A chance to hear what is happening as we plan our return in 2015! As a fundraiser for the festival we will have food, snacks and beverages available for purchase.
Chairs will be available at the concert so you do not need to bring one for any ticket purchased.
