In 2005, we started with a BANG -- hosting Tony Rice in a concert and a Bluegrass Guitar Workshop.  How privileged we were to have this amazing man share himself and his wisdom with us!  

Then, for the next 10 years (2005 ~ 2015), we produced summer festivals in Virginia City, NV.  For the first few years, it was called "Bluegrass on the Comstock".  Then, "Americana Music Festival".  Roots music artists played all over town, with free shows in the town park, saloons and churches.  Headliners played in the beautiful Piper's Opera House.     

Tim O'Brien headlined our 2009 festival, a one man show featuring him playing 3 different banjos, 2 sizes of mandolins, guitar and fiddle!  He had just won a Grammy for his solo album, "Fiddler's Green".  What a night to remember it was!    

Then, in 2011, Darrell Scott headlined our Americana Music Festival with an appearance of his "Brother Band" (Darrell and his three brothers), as well as a Songwriting Workshop.  

We've hosted a lot of great artists over the years!  See pictures and videos of many of them on the Gallery page.
