Vince Herman, Sam Grisman in concert at The Waldo, Jan. 25
WALDOBORO — "Music lovers, ease into the new year by joining us at The Waldo for this intimate acoustic show with Vince Herman, of Leftover Salmon, and Sam Grisman, of Sam Grisman Project, on Saturday, Jan. 25, at 7:30 p.m.
These musicians are pairing up to bring a heartfelt, curated evening of music paying tribute to the legacy of Sam’s father, David “Dawg” Grisman; Jerry Garcia, John Kahn, John Hartford, and many more.
Pairing together for just four intimate shows in the Northeast, they’ll be playing NYC, Troy, New York, Boston, and then wrapping up the run in Waldoboro.
The partnership between Herman and Grisman reflects that between Grisman’s father, David Grisman, and Jerry Garcia, albeit with different instrumentation since the younger Grisman plays bass rather than mandolin like his dad. Grisman and Garcia recorded a series of duo albums in the ’90s, at the peak of the Grateful Dead’s touring career, including the Grammy-nominated Jerry Garcia/David Grisman, Shady Grove, and Not For Kids Only.
“For as long as I can remember I’ve been encountering the great Vince Herman out in the wild with Leftover Salmon. I grew up going to festivals with my pop David Grisman, and we would always have a great time playing music and spending time with Vinny anytime we crossed paths, “ says Sam Grisman," in a news release. “He’s always been someone who I’ve looked up to as a positive force in our music scene and like me, he’s always game for some good tunes. Vince and I are looking forward to pairing up and picking and puffing our way through some of our favorite songs for all of you fine north-easterners for these special intimate DUO shows.”
Adult tickets are available in advance online for $40 and $45 the day of the show. If this show is not sold out, tickets are available at the box office starting at 6:30 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and concessions will be available for purchase.
