POSTPONED | 2024 Celebration IPA Release Party ft. The Infamous Stringdusters & The Jon Stickley Trio @ Sierra Nevada Mills River
Oct 17 all-day

Thursday, October 17 · 6:30pm Show |

The Infamous Stringdusters are a celebrated American progressive bluegrass band known for their virtuosic musicianship, innovative arrangements, and genre-blending style. The GRAMMY® Award-winning Americana quintet—Andy Falco [guitar], Chris Pandolfi [banjo], Andy Hall [dobro], Jeremy Garrett [fiddle], and Travis Book [double bass]—have musical influences that truly run the gamut, but their common denominator is certainly bluegrass— the sound that has in essence defined the course of their career.

Jon Stickley Trio is a genre-defying and cinematic instrumental trio who’s deep grooves, innovative flatpicking and sultry-spacy violin moves the listener’s head, heart, and feet. “It’s not your father’s acoustic-guitar music, Instead Stickley’s Martin churns out a mixture of bluegrass, Chuck Berry, metal, prog, grunge, and assorted other genres—all thoroughly integrated into a personal style,” -Guitar Player Magazine.

The view from our tree-lined brewery is something special no matter the season. Cool down in the Taproom with a farm-fresh salad and small plates, or soak in the sun on our Back Porch with a beer and a snack. Check out our upcoming events and more! click here

Live Music w/ Ryan Furstenberg duo @ Mudpuppies Sports Bar and Grill Arden
Nov 8 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm

Some have said Ryan Furstenberg’s voice brings to mind a cool mountain stream, or tobacco leaves swept by the Eastern North Carolina breeze. With that rich and southern accented baritone, the accomplished guitarist, banjo player and convention-bucking songwriter can’t help showing his NC roots. Both as a solo act, and as half of The Moon and You – an indie folk duo based in Asheville, NC – Furstenberg is making a name for himself by never sounding quite like anyone else.

Sports, Music and trivia. Friends and rivals. At MUDPUPPIES, we bring so many different things to the table. But it’s the way we do it that makes them all just a little better. Great service, friendly fans, and a welcoming atmosphere turn games into get-togethers and competitors into comrades. mudpuppiesavl.com/
