Events Calendar

Join us for another fabulous afternoon of wine and music under the tent at Green Creek Wiinery.

The performer for today's Chardonnay Rosso concert is Mel Jones.  Born and raised in Chapel Hill, NC with the blues in his blood, Mel toured as a drummer and singer performing rock and roll and rhythm and blues for years in the Southeast before he discovered the hotbed of bluegrass and old time music deep in the heart of Western North Carolina. Picking up harmonica and venturing on to a new realm of music proved to be just another stop on the musical path for Jones. He formed the first Bag of Bones and the Piedmont blues duo of Wicker and Jones in the early 1990s and began a new career in acoustic music. Now he finds himself soulfully connected to traditional blues combining all his musical influences to create well rounded performances that prove blues, jazz and a little humor go a long way. Jones has established himself as one of the region's best harmonica players by winning numerous titles in regional festivals and earning a solid reputation for showmanship. He is also an accomplished songwriter, with five CD's to his credit and appearances at Merlefest, the International Blues Challenge and festivals and concerts throughout the region. Don Story is on guitar, Kip Snow on mandolin and Calving Johnson on bass. The Bones present a show for all ages.

Cheese, crackers and grape plates available for purchase.  Tickets are $15 in advance $20 at the door.
