Lime Kiln Theater’s summer concert series is sponsored by Devils Backbone Brewing Company and Orrison Tree & Landscape Services. The Darrell Scott Bluegrass Band show is presented by Kendal at Lexington. Pure Eats food, Devils Backbone beer and Rockbridge Vineyard wine will all be available for purchase.

​The Darrell Scott Bluegrass Band is a hot “super group” of musicians: Bryn Davies on upright bass and vocals, Shad Cobb on fiddle and vocals, Matt Flinner on banjo and mandolin and Darrell Scott on guitar and vocals. The band follows Darrell’s songs with bluegrass instrumentation – the end result being as close to newgrass and improv as it is to singer/songwriter, with all members contributing their own tunes, as well. This is hot playing, soulful singing and nimble ensemble work at its bluegrass, newgrass, Americana, singer/songwritery, fiery best.

Erin Lunsford is an award-winning singer and songwriter originally from Fincastle, Va., and now living in Charlottesville. Erin’s compositions, which include self-styled guitar, banjo, and keyboard melodies, are sure to please. She is the powerhouse front-woman of Charlottesville funk/soul band Erin & The Wildfire, who appeared on the main stage at LOCKN 2014 and LOCKN 2015 with the late Leon Russell. Erin’s recording projects include a debut solo album I Saw the Thread in 2012, Erin & The Wildfire’s debut EP in 2013, and a new full length project from the band in 2017 called Thirst.

Lime Kiln Arts, Inc. is a non-profit (501c3), operating at Lime Kiln Theater in Lexington. It opened in 1984 and is rooted in and inspired by the magic of a natural, outdoor theater. After a brief hiatus that started in 2012, Lime Kiln Theater is thrilled to present its fifth straight summer season of live music and theater featuring local, regional and national acts.
