🎶 Live Bluegrass at the Besse Theater 🎶The Dumas, Luquette & Knapp Trio
📅 Monday, April 13
🕖 7:00 PM
📍 Besse Theater at Bay College – Escanaba
Join us for an intimate evening of traditional and contemporary bluegrass featuring three world-class musicians whose combined experience spans Grammy nominations, IBMA awards, and international touring.
Mandolinist and vocalist Nick Dumas (former member of Grammy-nominated Special Consensus and three-time IBMA Award winner) leads the trio with soulful playing rooted in tradition and fresh contemporary songwriting. His recent releases on Skyline Records have reached #1 on the bluegrass airplay charts.
Guitarist Chris Luquette, known for his 11 years with Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen, brings virtuosic guitar work and rich vocals shaped by years of performing alongside artists like Jerry Douglas and Emmylou Harris.
On bass and vocals, Andrew Knapp anchors the group with deep musicality drawn from his background as a classically trained jazz bassist, having performed with artists such as Kenny Garrett and Terence Blanchard.
Together, these three master musicians deliver powerful harmonies, technical brilliance, and heartfelt storytelling that captures the authentic spirit of bluegrass.
