Bring a picnic blanket and friends and experience music and community on the Gregg Museum’s front lawn for this summer’s music concert series. Don’t miss the chance to hear Barefoot Manner!

Barefoot Manner started playing together in its current configuration in 2002 and has been at it continuously since those early, fateful days of national touring, major festivals in all parts of the country and multiple albums of original material. Barefoot Manner has a passion for making music and mixing in different influences. While rooted in bluegrass and related acoustic music, the band fearlessly explores other genres seamlessly weaving them together in a fresh, new way with lots of improvisation and stellar vocal harmonies.

Please RSVP for this event. Sign up here.

Summer Music on the Gregg Museum Lawn: Também

Friday, July 25
7 – 9 p.m.
Front Lawn, Gregg Museum
(In case of inclement weather concert will be moved to the Main Lobby)

Bring a picnic blanket and friends and experience music and community on the Gregg Museum’s front lawn for this summer’s music concert series. Don’t miss the chance to hear Também !

Também is a trio of musicians who compose, record, and perform original works of music together. With a do-it-yourself approach they produce their eclectic, groove-driven music in a home studio, finding inspiration everywhere from Herbie Hancock’s angular improvisations to the contemplative poetics of Rumi to the multi-textural otherworldliness of Brazilian composer Hermeto Pascoal. Poetic lyricism, earnest vocals, and a palpable deep listening all form the trio’s down to earth aesthetic. Since its inception in 2018, Também has released two studio albums: Esmeralda (2022), and Echo (2023), a project which was funded by the North Carolina Arts Council. Também has brought its colorful soundscape across the Southeast as a featured performer at numerous events including the North Carolina State Fair, Shakori Hills Grassroots Festival, the Koka Booth Amphitheater Jazz Series, Boonerang Festival and the Floyd Yoga Jam.

Please RSVP for this event. Sign up here.
