Tonight's Lineup:
Main Stage: Jonny Estep Music
Jonny Estep & Lonesome Blend is an exciting bluegrass band based in Covington, Kentucky. With their decades of combined experience in the music scene, they bring a unique blend of classic bluegrass and folk covers, cutting-edge newer material, and heartfelt original songs to every show.
Guitarist and bandleader Jonny Estep is the primary singer and emcee of the group. Mandolinist Phil Lawrence adds his “high lonesome” tenor vocals to the mix. Banjo player Ahmad Maghathe brings the punch and drive expected of any premier bluegrass ensemble. Gil Benson’s fiddle playing adds that smooth sound that gets toes tapping and eyes watering. Rounding out the group, Adam Hicks provides a rock solid foundation with his thumping bass playing.
Even folks who don’t typically consider themselves “bluegrass fans” get caught up in the Lonesome Blend that Jonny and the guys bring to the stage every single time.
