Inspired by some of the best band scrambles and picks from around the nation, MainGrass aims to showcase incredible players in front of a receptive audience. Created in 2021 by MainStage and Emma Rose, we individually curate the lineup each week, every lineup is unique, no two groups are the same, and often players are playing together for the very first time on our stage. We carefully select musicians from around Colorado and nationally to play based not only on their individual talent, but by how they can complement each other in the lineup. Playing originals, standards, and the occasional full-out jam, no two shows are the same.
Each week’s lineup can be found on our events calendar as they are released. Since each band is unique and most musicians have full bands and other projects, all lineups are subject to change at any time. Given the amazing music community in Colorado, special guests are always possible.
Past lineups include:
Nick Piccininni (Yonder Mountain String Band)
Bonnie Sims, Eve Panning, Joy Adams, Hazel Royer (Big Richard)
Tom Knowlton, Taylor Shuck, Sam Parks (Fretliners)
Charlie Rose (Elephant Revival)
