(All ages) The Lucketts Bluegrass tradition continues into its 40th season of weekly concerts at the Lucketts Community Center on Saturday, April 19, 2014 at 7 PM featuring DARREN BEACHLEY AND POTOMAC. Lucketts' famous hot dogs, barbeque sandwiches, plus other snacks and drinks will be available at the kitchen. Darren Beachley and Potomac - Ethan Hughes on dobro and vocals, David Propst on mandolin and vocals, George Osing on banjo, and Tom Reeves on bass. The focus of this new band harkens back to Darren's original plan for "Darren Beachley & Legends of the Potomac", a band that was very popular from their first outing. Their first recording, "Takeoff", hit #11 on Billboard, #1 on the Roots Music Charts, and was named one of the top 15 bluegrass releases of 2010. Due to unforeseen problems, the Legends of the Potomac concept was abandoned and a new band was formed. Welcome "Darren Beachley and Potomac"!

(All ages) Together with original Nitty Gritty Dirt Band member Les Thompson, Stephanie Thompson, and award-winning singer/songwriter, Lisa Taylor, "Beyond Borders" blends McKnight's charming tenor voice and acoustic and electric guitars with upright bass, drums, banjo, percussion, and more into a wide-ranging soundscape described as "beyond Appalachian, beyond blues, beyond folk." Since making their collective debut at the Kennedy Center in 2008, these four seasoned musicians' tight delivery, sweet vocal blend and eclectic arrangements have inspired enthusiastic responses at festivals and concerts around the mid-Atlantic region.
