About this Event
Grammy-award winner and member of the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame Peter Rowan is coming back to Fur Peace Ranch.
The late ‘60s and early ’70s saw Peter Rowan involved in several rock, folk, and bluegrass projects, including Earth Opera, Sea Train, Muleskinner, and the Rowans, where he played alongside brothers Chris and Lorin Rowan. After the Rowan Brothers disbanded, Rowan, David Grisman, Jerry Garcia, Vassar Clements, and John Kahn formed a bluegrass band christened Old & In the Way. During this incarnation, Rowan penned the song “Panama Red,” a subsequent hit for the New Riders of the Purple Sage and a classic ever since.
Peter Rowan's bluegrass career started as a Blue Grass Boy in 1964. By Bill Monroe's admission, Peter sounded a lot like him. When the two harmonized, they were said to have reached "heavenly heights." Monroe & Rowan co-wrote what has already become a bluegrass standard, Walls Of Time. Peter's touring bluegrass band consists of outstanding players Eric Thorin, bass; Chris Henry, Mandolin/Vocals; Julian Pinelli, fiddle; and Max Wareham, banjo/vocal. The band features original songs written by Rowan along with Carter Family and Bill Monroe favorites. This is a winning combination for an audience that knows and loves this music!
Peter Rowan is bluegrass royalty. During his five-decade career, he has performed with some of the genre’s biggest legends, and this show is sure to bring it all home. Join us for this special performance.
