ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL
Friday, March 4
Founded in 1970, Asleep at the Wheel has been part of the American roots music landscape for more than 50 years. Inspired by Western swing and honky-tonk country, the band has accrued 10 Grammy Awards.
SIERRA HULL
Friday, March 25, 2021
In her first 25 years alone, singer/songwriter/ multi-instrumentalist Sierra Hull hit more milestones than many musicians accomplish in a lifetime. After making her Grand Ole Opry debut at the age of 10, the Tennessee-bred virtuoso mandolinist played Carnegie Hall at age 12, then landed a deal with Rounder Records just a year later. Now 28-years-old, Hull is set to deliver her fourth full- length for Rounder: an elegantly inventive and endlessly captivating album called 25 Trips.
POKEY LAFARGE
Friday, April 8
Throughout his career, nine albums to date including a stint on Jack White’s Third Man Records, the singer-songwriter has never been one to look back in anger or disappointment. LaFarge is an artist who refuses to rest on his laurels and compromise.
MOLLY TUTTLE & GOLDEN HIGHWAY
Friday, April 22
An award-winning guitarist and songwriter, native Californian, Molly Tuttle continues to push her songwriting in new directions and transcend musical boundaries. She has worked with many of her peers and heroes in the Americana, folk, and bluegrass communities, winning Instrumentalist of the Year at the 2018 Americana Music Awards.
The outdoor performances occur on the Oval Lawn at Bok Tower Gardens providing ample room for safe distancing and a beautiful concert experience for attendees. Ticket holders must bring chairs and blankets. Purchasing in advance is recommended as the capacity is limited to 600 tickets.
Concert Under the Stars Series is supported by Visit Central Florida.
