PineCone favorites The Steel Wheels return with songs to get us through hard times and hard choices and into a brighter tomorrow. “As a band,” says frontman Trent Wagler, “our aim is to make music that acknowledges the pain and difficulty of the moment, but takes a step back to look at the harmony we can create through all that life throws at us." Harmony, both musical and universal, is at the core of the Virginia-based folk-rock band’s sound. And you’ll feel it in the audience, too.

Two-time Grammy winner Tim O’Brien is joined by his wife, mandolin player Jan Fabricius, for a show that will feature simple instrumentation, sweet harmonies, and songs that both advance and honor traditional music. O’Brien’s remarkable journey in roots music began when he saw Doc Watson performing on TV. From there, he was hooked on old-time and bluegrass music, and he’s made a career applying his songwriting and instrumental skills to both. His songs have been covered by Nickel Creek, Kathy Mattea, Garth Brooks, and many others, and his collaborations have included albums as part of Flatt & Scruggs tribute supergroup the Earls of Leicester, with his sister Mollie O’Brien, and as a duo with Darrell Scott. A founding member of Hot Rize (as well as their friends Red Knuckles and the Trailblazers), O’Brien has also found time for his own projects, including numerous solo albums, guest appearances, and an album of grassed-up Bob Dylan covers titled Red on Blonde.
