Join us August 1st for a night of bluegrass and psychedelic jams with Jacksonville’s Firewater Tent Revival, plus an impromptu Jerry Garcia birthday celebration set featuring a tribute to Old & In The Way.

Firewater Tent Revival, a Psychedelic Outlaw Jamgrass Band near Jacksonville, FL.  Firewater has played more than a thousand shows over the past decade+!  Cutting their teeth in beach towns up and down the Florida coasts, Firewater’s thought-provoking originals and Americana-stylized covers provide pure entertainment to the unsuspecting masses.  Folkrock? Punkgrass? Who can say, but venue patrons will be dancing and jamming all night!

Firewater Tent Revival is currently extensively touring all of Florida and plans to make frequent trips to the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions (and beyond).

A Tribute to Old & In The Way is a project that has brought together a number of musicians to perform the music of “Old & In The Way” –  Jerry Garcia’s 1973 bluegrass band.  That band was a “project” also!  Over its short life, that band included: Jerry Garcia, Peter Rowan, David Grisman, Vassar Clements, John Kahn, Richard Greene, John Hartford, and Brian Price.

August first’s Tribute Band members are from Central Pennsylvania and include: Matt Wenger – Guitar/Vocals, Jerry King – Guitar/Vocals, Robbie Mann – Fiddle, Bruce Campbell – Bass/Vocals, Joe Perloff – Mandolin, Leon Lobos – Banjo.

Bluegrass music has rich history, and “O&ITW” was a classic band that opened the door to an entire new audience – namely “Deadheads” and others who would have never considered bluegrass as a listening choice.  The music is still classic today! In the words of David Grisman, “We hope you dig!”
