Guitar and Banjo Legend Billy Constable Benefit with the Big Dadday Bluegrass Band (featuring members of Steep Canyon Rangers, Larry Keel and Natural Bridge, and Acoustic Syndicate), Jason Burlseson and the Bluegrass Buddies featuring David Via and Nikki Talley, and many other special guests will be happening this Sunday December 11 at the Grey Eagle Music Hall in Asheville, NC.
Billy has carried his banjo into groups such as Acoustic Forum from New York and New England’s Max Creek. He toured extensively and recorded with Hypnotic Clambake and The Larry Keel Experience. Billy has appeared on many shows with Leftover Salmon, and he was also a featured guest on a handful of String Cheese Incident shows and one of their most popular albums “Carnival 99.” Billy also played with the seasonal Big Daddy Bluegrass Band with Steve McMurray, Curtis Burch and Larry Keel.
A large group of friends has come together in the bluegrass and acoustic music scene in the Asheville area to help our good buddy, Billy Constable, raise funds to offset his medical expenses for a brain tumor that he was recently diagnosed with. The Grey Eagle is hosting the event on Sunday, December 11, 2011. The doors open at 6pm, donations will be accepted, and there will also be a silent auction.
