Big Al Hall, Jones Smith, and Ben Chontos (the Big Al Trio) perform high-energy, traditional Appalachian music that is sure to please and have you tapping your feet. Big Al (banjo, lead vocals) draws from the Old Time tradition of Western North Carolina and Southwestern Virginia. Jones (mandolin, guitar) and Ben (bass, vocals) are each versed in the Bluegrass tradition. Together, their combined talent and exuberance for traditional music enchant and surprise audiences, transforming old, old tunes into something immediate and accessible. They also host the Sunday Night Old-Time Bluegrass Jam at Satellite Lounge in Wilmington, NC building community and expanding the circle. CAM’s CaféJohnnie will have refreshments and light appetizers available for purchase. Music held in CAM’s lovely Courtyard weather permitting, indoors if not.
