Playing a mix of “new traditional” and classic bluegrass, the Stoney Creek Boys have been featured performers at WCU’s Mountain Heritage Day for many years, and are the house band for Asheville’s Shindig on the Green and the Mountain Dance and Folk Festival. The band includes fiddler Arvil Freeman, considered by local bluegrass fans to be the dean of Western North Carolina fiddlers; guitarist Leonard Hollifield, bassist Boyd Black; and banjoist George Banks.
The final jam session of the winter series will be held at the Mountain Heritage Center on Thursday, March 15.
WCU’s Mountain Heritage Center is located on the ground floor of H.F. Robinson Administration Building. For more information, contact the center at (828) 227-7129.
