The Cedar sure knows how to pick 'em--and so do the artists on tonight's smash bluegrass double bill: providing a living link to bluegrass founder Bill Monroe and the late, great Jerry Garcia, the inimitable Peter Rowan has assembled an allstar cast in his aptly named Peter Rowan Bluegrass Band, touring in support of their brand new release Legacy (Compass Records), recorded earlier this year with the help of Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, Del McCoury, and Ricky Skaggs. And in a more contemporary vein, the Boulder Acoustic Society take roots music in startling new directions.

Tickets are on sale now from the Cedar Ticketline (612-338-2674 ext 2), from hard-working Cedar volunteers in the front lobby during shows, from Cedar outlets (Electric Fetus, Irish on Grand, Homestead Pickin' Parlor, and Depth of Field), and online at Ticketweb.

All Cedar shows are all ages. Students with ID may gain discounted admission for tickets purchased at the door.
