Peter Rowan may have gotten his start as one of Bill Monroe's Bluegrass Boys, in 1965, but in the 50 years since, he's gone on to forge his own sub-genre of the bluegrass discipline, one that seamlessly blends lively, strings-forward arrangements with Eastern philosophy. At a recent show, he appeared wearing purple yoga pants, and, in between wheeling out the well-known classics "Panama Red" and "Midnight, Moonlight," sang tunes from his recent album Dharma Blues that were apt to include mantras. Says Rowan, of his latest project, "These songs...are a place on the spiritual journey where the commitment has been made, the intent established, and the journey begun. The doubts and resolutions of the spiritual journey are what drives Dharma Blues...." Tickets are $35, $33 for members, and $30 for students.
