The Northern California Bluegrass Society welcomes the bluegrass and beyond band Nickel Creek for a Sunday July 9, 2023 concert at Weill Hall & Lawn at Sonoma State University. SSU is the most important live bluegrass music presenter in the Sonoma County area. Thanks for your support!
Singer/Songwriter Monica Martin will open. The program is presented by SSU’s Green Music Center as part of its summer on campus concert series in Rohnert Park. The venue offers both indoor and outdoor seating in a beautiful setting.
Nickel Creek, originally from San Diego, rocketed to stardom as a youth band. Its members then went on to individual musical achievement. Two of the three members — Chris Thile and Sara Watkins — are the only persons to host the national public radio program “A Prairie Home Companion” other than Garrison Keillor. The band, including Sean Watkins, is now back together for limited touring dates. The band last toured in 2014.
