Bluegrass Junction is back and we're celebrating Peter Dawson's 90th birthday! Come out and catch this wonderful trad bluegrass band and wish Peter another wonderful year of fiddling.Traditional-style bluegrass music is always on the menu when Bluegrass Junction hits the stage. Bluegrass Junction, in various personnel combinations, performed regularly in the Ottawa area and at local festivals during the period 1985-1998. An initial "one off" reunion performance led to a reformed edition of the band which has played occasional gigs around the area over the past several years.
The current band includes three of the members from the late ‘90's edition of Bluegrass Junction: Peter McGuire (banjo and vocals); Nancy McGuire (bass and vocals); Al McDonald (guitar and vocals). Rounding out the roster are the newest member of the group – Andrew McGuire (guitar, banjo, mandolin and vocals) and the man of the hour, award-winning fiddler Peter
Dawson.
Remember to bring your instrument for the jam after the concert.
Thank you for supporting Bluegrass Wednesdays, please help support our gracious venue by patronizing the bar.
