$40 – $70
Mark O’Conner
Featuring the O’Conner Band
Sunday, June 16, 2019 – 8:00 p.m.
Mark O?Connor Band?s very first performance took place at the legendary Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas in 2015. In 2017 ? less than a year and a half later ? they took home the GRAMMY Award for Best Bluegrass Album for their debut recording, Coming Home.
In a whirlwind three years, the band has also performed at the GRAMMY Awards Premiere Ceremony, received standing ovations at the Grand Ole Opry, reached the No. 1 spot on Billboard?s Top Bluegrass Albums chart, and opened for the Zac Brown Band that included two nights at Fenway Park.
They have put together shows unlike any other, blending country and pop sensibilities with Americana rawness, bluegrass drive, and chamber music sophistication, one that has begun winning over audiences at festivals (AmericanaFest, GreyFox, IBMA, RockyGrass), clubs (Jazz Alley, Dakota Jazz Club), and the world?s premier Performing Arts Centers (Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, Eastman Kodak Theater, Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, Schermerhorn Symphony Center).
