Front Country

Presented by Common Fence Music at CFP Arts, Wellness & Community Center

“One of the best up-and-coming progressive and forward-thinking bluegrass bands on the rise…” – Arizona Daily Sun

An acoustic band born in the land of tech innovation, Front Country was never going to be accepted as an authentic American roots band out of the gate. Cutting their teeth in progressive bluegrass jams in San Francisco’s Mission District and rehearsing in the East Bay, they learned to play roots music their own way, with the tools they had on hand. A mandolinist with a degree in composition. A guitarist trained in rock and world music. A bassist equally versed in jazz and bluegrass. A female lead singer with grit and soul that was also a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter. In a wood-paneled country dive bar in the shadow of the San Francisco skyline, Front Country forged a sound hell bent on merging the musical past with the future.

Our signature selection of fresh soups, baked goods and beverages will be available from the CFM kitchen. For those who prefer to carry in their own fare, this event will be BYOB & Picnic.
