Urban Pioneers with The Carmonas
9pm - $5
The Carmonas Web Facebook Twitter Instagram

A wild night of hillbilly music, western swing and rockabilly.
“It’s a true blend of American music,” the two brothers (Aaron and Chad) and sister (Alison) explain, “most of what is heard is directly inspired from the places we’ve lived and loved and lost in our lives: The Southern, Appalachian roots of North Carolina to the seemingly endless fertile valleys of Central California.”

Old Time Open Jam Session
5:00 PM
The Old Time Jam Session is a proud tradition at Jack's for the past 20 years!
Our players come from all over WNC to be part of this legendary session. It's a great for sitting back, enjoying a bite & beverage, and time with friends! Old Time music, the precursor to Blue Grass, reflects the cultures that settled North America. The roots of old-time music are in the traditional musics of the British Isles, (England and Scotland), Ireland and Africa, even French and German influences.
All Ages Welcome
