John Cowan with Darin & Brooke Aldridge

March 17, 2019 the Stokes County Arts Council welcomes John Cowan along with Darin and Brooke Aldridge back to The Arts Place of Stokes for a 4pm performance. Doors will open at 3:15pm.

John Cowan, also known as the Voice of Newgrass, has been singing his heart out for more than thirty-five years, and his soaring vocals have only improved with time. From Newgrass Revival, to the John Cowan Band, to the legendary Doobie Brothers, Cowan has set himself apart as one of the most loved and admired vocal artists of his generation, not just by fans and critics, but among fellow musicians as well. A true innovator, John applies his powerful pipes to genres from country, bluegrass, and gospel to soul, jazz, and rock-and-roll, often within the space of a single concert. His ability to move fluidly through multiple styles, and carry mesmerized audiences on the journey with him have created a dedicated following and a live performance that shouldn't be missed.

Husband and wife duo Darin & Brooke Aldridge draw on the traditions of their native North Carolina, the savvy of a young, gifted band and their own dedication to ingenuity to create the most adventurous album of their career with their latest release, Faster & Farther.

The duo has placed several tracks at the top of the charts on Americana/Roots, SiriusXM, Bluegrass and Gospel charts. They have received multiple nominations from the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music of America (SPGBMA) and Inspirational Country Music (ICM). Their music videos Wildflower and Tennessee Flat Top Box were heavily featured on outlets including CMT, CMT Edge, GAC, Bluegrass Ridge TV and The Bluegrass Situation.
