The third show in the 2024 series will happen at Town Hall Theatre on Friday, August 2nd at 7pm, with downstairs lobby entertainment by the talented Joe Peters getting under way at 6:00pm.

Featured special guests, the Berkeley band Charlie Torch brings together five masterful bluegrass artists who weave a rich tapestry of places, feelings, and colors through their lifelong connection to bluegrass and country music.
