Blues, Bluegrass & Barbeque

The Labor Day concert tradition returns to Theater at Lime Kiln with a phenomenal Virginia Bluegrass Festival featuring blues, barbecue, and of course, bluegrass.

Lime Kiln Executive Director Kim Renz says this Blues festival is yet another way Lime Kiln is working with artists from the area and touring artists to create unique events for the community.

The 2009 event featured music by Honest Labor, Scott Ainslie, and Walker's Run.  Ainslie has presented a beguiling mix of blues in story and song for more than 40 years.  Walker's Run features Brennan Gilmore on guitar and vocals; Andy Thacker on mandolin and vocals; Nick Reeb on fiddle and vocals; Zack Blatter on bass, and Will Lee on banjo and vocals. Honest Labor is comprised of Billy Friar on dobro, guitar, and vocals; Lee Sauder on blues harp, and Travis Weaver on bass and vocals.

Thanks to the event sponsor - Todd’s Barbeque Restaurant of Buena Vista - the event will also be featuring barbeque and chicken wing meals as well as other concessions.

Returning in 2010!!!
