It’s Back to Bluegrass!

Many thanks to the enthusiastic audience who came out for last weekend’s concert featuring the EG Kight Trio. It’s good to see we still have a good number of blues enthusiasts in the area as we plan to host more blues shows in the months to come.

Next up on Friday, March 15th will be another great bluegrass group making their first appearance in The Pickin’ Parlor, The Tim Shelton Syndicate. In short order this experienced and talented group has proven to be a powerful presence on bluegrass stages across the country, strongly benefiting from Tim’s highly regarded bluegrass baritone voice. While remaining anchored to bluegrass music, the group effortlessly transitions from hard driving, bluegrass tunes to heart-wrenching country ballads, even adding elements of classic rock.

Tickets for this show are only $28…a real bargain for an evening of great music in the area’s most intimate listener environment. Stop in the store or call us at 912-748-1930 to reserve yours soon.

Get Ready for Randy’s Annual Jam Weekend!

It’s almost time for Randy’s annual Jam Weekend, which will be held this year on Friday, March 29th and Saturday, March 30th. The music usually begins around 10 a.m. and continues until it stops!

For those who haven’t attended in past years, the Jam Weekend is a loosely structured weekend of picking,  singing and fellowship by fans of Randy Wood Guitars from near and far. The event is free of charge and open to anyone who enjoys bluegrass music, with players encouraged to bring their instrument(s) and join in. Musical jams during the weekend don’t follow any set schedule, but instead evolve naturally both indoors and out across the property.

During the event our Music Store will be open with all kinds of musical instruments and accessories for sale, including a wide range of great vintage, new and used instruments for players and collectors alike. You can bring your own food and drinks, or better yet, enjoy the great Mexican cuisine at our on-site restaurant, Flacos Tacos. During your visit, be sure to also stop in at our Vintage Vinyl & Collectables store which will also be open with special pricing on selected bluegrass vinyl records and CDs.

If you need further information about the Jam Weekend or nearby accommodations, feel free to contact the store at 912-748-1930.

 

Full service music store. Custom musical instruments and repairs. Vintage vinyl and collectibles. Great live bluegrass, blues and other acoustic music with top-shelf acts in an intimate setting. It’s all here at Randy Wood Music.
