We’re delighted to announce that IIIrd Tyme Out is returning to the Glass City Opry in September! We will be having a special Sunday afternoon performance of the national, multi-award winning Bluegrass supergroup, Iiird Tyme Out here at the Maumee Indoor Theater on Sunday, September 19th.
More information will be coming soon! We just wanted to spread the news! Mark your calendars!
The Toledo Blade just ran a nice article about Ralph Stanley II. He will be appearing at the Glass City Opry in Maumee, Ohio this Saturday, April 3rd, 2010.
We’re pleased to present… The Bartley Brothers on January 28th, 2010!
This is one special group of musicians… led by Rick and Shayne Bartley, seasoned pros in the world of bluegrass. They have been playing this music since they were little boys in Kentucky! Rick was the homebody, working the mines, but picking, singing and writing some amazing songs. His younger brother Shayne has been a driving force in a number of top national bands such as Dave Evans, Charlie Sizemore, Rarely Herd, David Peterson and 1946, Karl Shiflett, and the Lost and Found as well as more!
But now, this is special. The brothers have come together to finally record and tour together and they have one heck of a great sounding traditional band and we can’t wait to hear them strut their stuff on the stage at the Glass City Opry!
If you had to give them a “sound” then it’s straight up traditional, hard driving Kentucky bluegrass since they have been collaborating for years with both J.D. Crowe and Don Rigsby as well as Junior Sisk, all leaders in the music. The Bartley’s music can be found on their CD products and on stage as well!
You can visit their MySpace page for more music and good information!
To start off the new year… we’re have a local favorite band… Deepwater Bluegrass to set off the first music of the new year! Yes, of course, running the Opry, it’s a fringe benefit of getting a chance to play once a year! We hope you’ll come out and enjoy the music of both the bands on this, a special event… Thursday, January 28th… doors open at 6:00 pm and the music starts at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $15 a person and children under 15 are free with an paid adult!
Another great night at the Glass City Opry is coming…. Friday August, 21st, 2009…. the world famous Michael Cleveland and Flamekeeper…. what a treat! We can’t wait!
Take a little listen to this fiddling…. the very beginning is the band fooling around a bit and then Michael takes off and my goodness…. there is little reason to not believe this man is definately the fiddler of the year, many times over.
Be sure to check out the website for schedule and ticket information. Tickets go on sale this week. Only $15 for general admission seating! First come, first served…. it’s going to be an amazing night!!!
