Anyone who has lived in the DC area for a long time and followed the music scene will know about the legendary bluegrass band - The Seldom Scene.
I often went to see them at the original Birchmere location. Sadly many of the original players are now playing in the hereafter.
Interestingly, the Seldom Scene Live at the Cellar Door is one of only three commercial recordings ever released from that legendary venue. The other two being from Miles Davis and Neil Young. Considering the amazing musicians that played there in the sixties and later that is a musical crime.

This is exciting news for Seldom Scene fans in eastern Virginia, and for any willing to travel there to witness this one time only event.
Mount Airy Farm near Warsaw, VA will host the Scene for a concert on September 25, during which they will perform a complete recreation of their classic 1975 album, Live at the Cellar Door. It was this recording that really put Seldom Scene on the map to a wider audience, not only for their brilliant music, but also for the stage antics that won them such a loyal following in the DC region starting in the early ’70s.
