Roots Music Series:
Fall 2010 Concert

On Saturday, November 13, at 8PM, the Roots Music Series is pleased to present bluegrass legends Dailey & Vincent (and their band) in concert at the Palace Theatre in Downtown Frostburg's Arts & Entertainment District).

Jamie Dailey and Darrin Vincent are veterans of bluegrass music, having some twenty years of experience between the two of them from long tenures with bluegrass and country legends Doyle Lawson and Ricky Skaggs. In 2003, long-time friends and colleagues Jamie Dailey and Darrin Vincent were asked to perform on a Koch Records recording titled Christmas Grass Vol.2 2004. Jamie and Darrin recorded a well known Christmas song, "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem," with just a guitar and mandolin and their two voices. Their version of this song rose to #1 on the Prime Cuts of Bluegrass. It was at this time that Jamie and Darrin decided that they would like to perform together more often and perhaps record again. This eventually evolved into the early planning and structuring of a new duo and band that would become Dailey and Vincent. Their first recording, Dailey and Vincent, was completed in August 2007 and released in January 2008. Dailey and Vincent signed with Rounder Records in early September 2007 and played over 100 tour dates in 2008.

The Roots Music Series was established by the Allegany Arts Council, in cooperation with WFWM Public Radio and Dr. Ken Roberts, to encourage and sustain "traditional" music in our community. Using a program format that includes afternoon workshops followed by evening concerts, the Roots Music Series is able to showcase a variety of musical traditions (such as bluegrass, folk, country, blues, gospel, etc.), to educate, instruct and nurture local musicians, and to increase awareness and interest in these important art forms among area residents.
