EVENTS
March 21st - Corsair Concert Series presents the multi award winning contemporary bluegrass group THE GRASCALS. If you have never attended one of our concerts you are missing a lot of fun and great entertainment. This is the 17th season for the concert series - presenting nationally renown Bluegrass and Americana music in an old-time, up close atmosphere. Presented by the Corsair Trail Council, proceeds from the concert series are used to maintain and operate the Corsair Skiing and Hiking Trails in the Huron National Forest.
Events are held at the Tawas United Methodist Church Family Center, on highway M-55, in Tawas City.
The Grascals launched to prominence as Dolly Parton's backing band during her 2004-2005 tour. In just a little over four years, the Nashville-based six-piece ensemble has become one of bluegrass music's most critically acclaimed groups and their songs dominate the top of the music charts. The International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) gave them it's 2005 Emerging Artist of the Year award and Song of the Year award for their hit single "Me and John and Paul". They captured the prestigious IBMA Entertainers of the Year awards in 2006 and 2007, and received two Grammy nominations for their recorded albums. Recently, band member Kristin Scott Benson was honored as the current 2008 IBMA Banjo Player of the Year. The Grascals have never sounded better, delivering their trademark blend of traditional bluegrass and classic country with freewheeling charisma, soaring three-part vocals and infectious instrumental firepower.
