Steep Canyon Rangers January "Homecoming Evening" in Asheville
It's nerve-racking, exciting, and nostalgic to think that our little bluegrass band - which started as a fun college hobby - is preparing to headline a concert in Asheville's largest venue. Growing up in Brevard in the 80s and 90s, I made several trips with my family to the Civic Center to see the circus, The Harlem Globetrotters, and even somehow (without family) ended up going to see the Toughman Contest. It will be wonderfully surreal to take the stage in the big room that I remember so well from childhood and to share the experience with special guests and one of Asheville's favorites, River Whyless. We are also excited to include several members from the Asheville Symphony, who will join us on a few songs. This is a homecoming evening for us, an embrace of so many things that we love about Asheville, and a walk down memory lane.
