About this Event
Hailed by No Depression as “the future of bluegrass”, Liam Purcell & Cane Mill Road bring a fresh and dynamic energy to Appalachian stringband music. Rooted in tradition yet brimming with innovation, this award-winning ensemble delivers a powerful blend of storytelling, virtuosic musicianship, and boundary-pushing creativity.
At just 22, North Carolina’s Liam Purcell has already made waves in the bluegrass world—earning accolades like the RockyGrass Instrumental Championships on mandolin, banjo, and guitar and leading Cane Mill Road to the IBMA Momentum Band of the Year award. Drawing inspiration from his Deep Gap roots near Doc Watson’s home and his studies at Berklee College of Music, Liam bridges the gap between tradition and modernity, breathing new life into the genre.
Their latest album, Yellow Line, showcases Liam’s commitment to honoring Appalachian music while adding his own innovations, creating a sound that feels both timeless and fresh. From heartfelt originals to driving bluegrass jams, every performance transports listeners to the front porch of Liam’s mountain home.
Don’t miss the chance to experience Liam Purcell & Cane Mill Road live in Caffè Lena’s intimate listening room—a night of top-tier musicianship and unforgettable bluegrass magic.
The Bright Series is made possible by a generous gift from Kevin & Claudia Bright.
