Easily one of the most recognizable bands on the circuit today with fans located all over the world, The Seldom Scene was one of the first bluegrass bands to embrace a non-traditional approach as they stretched the boundaries of what was acceptable by embracing artists such as Bob Dylan and the Grateful Dead while mixing it up with Merle Haggard and traditional tunes as well.
As it was from the beginning days with signature tenor singer John Duffey, the band is still known for its soaring, incredibly tight, vocal gymnastics.
Today, the band features Rickie Simpkins on banjo and fiddle, Dudley Connell on guitar (formerly of the Johnson Mt. Boys), Fred Travers on dobro, Lou Reid on mandolin (formerly with Ricky Skaggs) and Ronnie Simpkins on bass (formerly with The Tony Rice Unit).
Tickets are $37.50 in advance / $47.50 day of show and are available online.
