About this Event
Get ready to get into Arkansas roots all season long with Mount Sequoyah’s 2025 Music on the Mountain Series! Any donations will go to support Mount Sequoyah's continued community programing. This season again features a stellar lineup of talented Arkansas musicians! Mark your calendars and grab your blankets because the music starts flowing on April 25th and lasts until October 17th! Experience a diverse musical tapestry exploring Ozark and Americana roots. Most Music on the Mountain concerts will open with local emerging artists as a part of an ongoing effort to connect young performers to professional musicians for hands-on guidance.
This concert will be outdoors at our scenic Vesper Point. Seating will be provided but feel free to bring blankets and or chairs of your own. If the weather doesn't cooperate, we will move across campus, into Clapp Auditorium. This will be communicated to ticket holders via email as well as on our social pages.
Please, no outside food or drink. We will have drinks available and this year, you can add a large pizza to your ticket!
Entertainment begins 6:00PM
Auralai is the creative vision of Wisconsin native Stephanie Russell (Tschech), a cellist with over 20 years of classical training who has transformed her musical approach to bring cello into the alt indie spotlight. Stephanie discovered her passion for the cello during elementary school, where she honed her talent through after-school string programs, private lessons, and youth orchestras.
Her early career saw her performing with several bands, but it was her founding of Auralai in 2013 that marked the start of her signature style. Initially a three-piece acoustic indie pop outfit, Auralai evolved in 2015 when Stephanie teamed up with multi-instrumentalist Nate Lehner, giving birth to a new chapter as a duo marked by innovative, cello-driven sounds. Together, they released two albums, each a testament to Auralai’s eclectic indie pop vibe. Stephanie continues to experiment and find her voice, with new singles slated for release in early 2025.
No slave to conventional songwriting or classical cello form, Auralai's unique brand of cello-pop brings a breath of fresh air to the contemporary music scene.
