WEATHER CANCELLATION: Hindugrass Saturday night, July 31 concert cancelled due to rain
Saturday, July 31 · 7 pm - 8 pm
Hindugrass to open for Saturday, July 31st outdoor movie
Hindugrass bringing their unique musical blend to
Southern Village
Saturday, July 31, 7:00pm (Before the movie)
We were all disappointed when the Hindugrass performance that had been scheduled in June was cancelled due to rain. We’re fortunate now to have another chance to hear them in concert.
Hindugrass was formed in 1998 to create a blend of classical and folk music from northern India with traditional folk and bluegrass music from the southeastern U.S. The group will delight your ears as they combine the melodic and rhythmic structures of the ragas of Hindustan with songs from the Appalachian tradition.
Band members have been influenced by a wide variety of world music genres, and between them, play dozens of different and often exotic instruments, ranging from keyboards, bass, violin and bassoon to jaw harp, tabla, sarod, and many, many others.
You’ll enjoy the mix of the familiar, with sounds from a diversity of global musical sources, as the group plays music composed by its own members.
The concert is being presented outdoors on the Village Green in Southern Village, Chapel Hill, in advance of this evening’s movie on the lawn. It’s an open seating event; bring your own lawn chairs or blankets, and food and beverages of your choice.
NO COVER CHARGE, but $4.00 charge if you decide to stay to see the evening’s feature movie, ‘Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time’.
