For those of you who didn't get a ticket for the show in March, don't wait so long this time!

July 3 (Friday): Patty Loveless
SMAC has wanted to get Patty here since day one and their patience has been rewarded! This country superstar rose to stardom thanks to her blend of honky-tonk and country-rock, not to mention a plaintive, emotional ballad style. To date, Miss Patty has charted more than forty singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including five Number Ones. Rightfully she is a member of the 65th member of the Grand Ole Opry, and after this up close and personal performance, will be a part of the Stone Mountain Hall of fame as well!

Grammy-winning singer and songwriter and daughter of the legendary Johnny Cash. Her fourteen record albums, released over the last twenty five years, have charted eleven number-one singles.

Grammy award winning singer songwriter, her song "Sunny Came Home" was a huge hit and thrust Shawn Colvin into the who's who of contemporary folk singers. She is the go to gal when it comes to guest appearances on many of your favorite artists' recordings, sought after heavily for her unique voice and outstanding musicianship. A quick sell out.

Peter Mulvey, Kris Delmhorst, Jeffrey Foucault, Tracy Grammer & Jim Henry

July 21 (Tuesday): Robert Cray Band

July 26 (Sunday): Punch Brothers

Guitarist Chris Eldridge (Infamous Stringdusters), bassist Greg Garrison (Leftover Salmon), banjo player Noam Pikelny (John Cowan, Tony Trischka) and violinist Gabe Witcher (Jerry Douglas) comprise the group. They are jazz, bluegrass, folk, classical or none of the above! Hard to describe but not hard to love!

This show sold out quickly in February, and many of you did not get to see these amazing guys last time. So they are coming back! Grammy Award winning Ladysmith Black Mambazo sings in the vocal style of a male choral group from South Africa isicathamiya and mbube. They rose to worldwide prominence as a result of singing with Paul Simon on his album, "Graceland" and have won multiple awards. They will rock the house!

With a talent that remains both raw and wondrously refined and backed by a band any top musician would be proud of, Natalie MacMaster continues to stun crowds around the globe with her feverish fiddling and mesmerizing step dancing.

August 6 (Thursday): Waybacks
Last year they brought the house down! They draw freely from the old school and the old world, but The Waybacks are no throwback. They've been erroneously pigeonholed as a bluegrass band and celebrated as purveyors of "acoustic mayhem." They are as uninhibited and unpredictable as the eclectic San Francisco Bay area that claims them, and for nearly a decade their experiments have always proven sharp-witted and musically dazzling.

Package includes: One nights lodging with full country breakfast, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $365

August 7 (Friday): Red Stick Ramblers
These great guys do a mixture of Cajun fiddle tunes, Western Swing and old time New Orleans Jazz. Back for a third time, and fronted by singer Lindsay Young, this is a smooth sound from Louisiana, that just makes you happy. Bring your dancing shoes or just watch this band perform the best of the best of this high energy accordion and fiddle driven Cajun music. Back for a third time... this is a dance show with something for everyone!

Package includes: Two nights lodging with full country breakfast each morning, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $505 (Sorry - single night packages not available)

August 8 (Saturday): Catie Curtis & Ellis Paul
Two great songwriters, one great show. These two friends do their own brand of contemporary folk, with their heartfelt songs and heartfelt voices. They are terrific and always put on an outstanding show individually. Together it just makes that show twice the enjoyment.

Package includes: Two nights lodging with full country breakfast each morning, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $515 (Sorry - single night packages not available)

August 14 (Friday): Maura O'Connell
Back for the third time, Maura is to simply put it, just a great singer of great songs. Her Irish born wit and warmth that she exudes to you from the stage makes her performances an emotional roller coaster... you'll laugh, you'll cry and you'll wish you didn't have to wait another year to see her again.

Package includes: Two nights lodging with full country breakfast each morning, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $515 (Sorry - single night packages not available)

August 15 (Saturday): Brownfield Library Benefit with Paula Poundstone
Our favorite comedian is back for a third time... and this time she will have with her a brand new CD she recorded at SMAC! If you cannot wait, you can order it on her website. This is a great night of laughs for a great cause - the Brownfield Public Library (because this is a much needed benefit, we are offering a single night package - most weekends in the summer require a two night minimum... but this little library needs to succeed, so we're making it as attractive as possible).

Package includes: One nights lodging with full country breakfast, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $435

August 20 (Thursday): Dan Tyminski Band
Since 1994, this Grammy nominated bluegrass ace has been a key component of the Alison Krauss and Union Station band.  With his masterful guitar playing and signature tenor voice, he is a big part of the Union Station sound. With that band on hiatus, Tyminski has formed a new incarnation of the Dan Tyminski Band, with whom he is currently recording a new album and touring with. This new edition includes longtime Union Station associate Barry Bales (bass), former Union Station and Mountain Heart member Adam Steffey (mandolin), sideman extraordinaire Ron Stewart (banjo/fiddle) and newcomer Justin Moses (fiddle/dobro).

August 21 (Friday): Suzy Bogguss
Yes, our favorite gal from down South is coming back! She is known for her big country hits, but she is much more than just country wrapping. She is a great singer of all styles of music, a great picker and a great lady.

Package includes: Two nights lodging with full country breakfast each morning, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $555 (Sorry - single night packages not available)

August 22 (Saturday): Eileen Ivers
To say Eileen is just a fiddler is like saying Tiger Woods is a just a golfer. She is an explosion from Ireland who along with her virtuosic band mix deep Celtic roots with a collage of global influences. She's been called a "sensation" by Billboard magazine and "the Jimi Hendrix of the violin" by The New York Times. "She electrifies the crowd with a  dazzling show of virtuoso playing" says The Irish Times. Ivers' recording  credits include over 80 contemporary and traditional albums and numerous  movie scores. Her latest CD, entitled 'Eileen Ivers & Immigrant Soul' continues to display why Ivers is hailed as one of the great innovators and pioneers in the Celtic and World music genres.

Package includes: Two nights lodging with full country breakfast each morning, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $540 (Sorry - single night packages not available)

August 28 (Friday): Paula Cole
This amazing singer honored us by performing on our little Stone Mountain LIVE show in February. She wowed the audience with her unstoppable voice and heartfelt songs. Paula is know for her hits, like "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone", but there is so much more to her than a pop radio hit.  She is, simply put, one of the best singers of our generation. Oh, and her backing musicians aren't too shabby either (our own Kevin Barry from the Tone Mountain LIVE shows for one!).

Package includes: Two nights lodging with full country breakfast each morning, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $555 (Sorry - single night packages not available)

August 29 (Saturday): Slaid Cleaves
Slaid Cleaves started his career with the Moxie men right over in Maine. Now he is known as much in Texas as he is in our fine neighboring state... and swings easily between the two. His songwriting is deeply rooted in the Austin songwriting scene... shades of  Joe Ely and Lyle Lovett come to mind. He is not to be missed!

Package includes: Two nights lodging with full country breakfast each morning, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $505 (Sorry - single night packages not available)

They're back... and what a storm they are! This is a great high energy Irish band that is not to be missed. Famous for their scenes in the movie "Titanic", they are a wild Irish ride!

September 18 (Friday): Dave Mallett
Maine's own singer songwriter Dave Mallett has written songs for the likes of John Denver, Arlo Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Peter, Paul & Mary. But no one quite sings his songs the way he does. In his own words, " I like to keep in touch with the past because to me, music is timeless... I try to write songs that would have meant something to those who have gone before us as well as those yet to come." And he does just that. He is a great story teller through his songs, as well as his voice, and his one of Maine's most proud traditions.

Package includes: One nights lodging with full country breakfast, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $355

September 26 (Saturday): Lori McKenna
The sweetest singer songwriter you are ever going to meet! She is critically acclaimed for her work as a song writer and heavy hitters like country star Faith Hill have recorded a pile of her songs. Faith is great, but no one sings Lori's songs like Lori... ome see why she's a SMAC favorite!

Package includes: One nights lodging with full country breakfast, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $365

September 27 (Sunday): Buffy Sainte-Marie
Academy Award-winning, Canadian First Nations musician, composer, visual artist, pacifist, educator and social activist... these are a few of the things that are attached to the resume of yet another great artist from Canada, Buffy Stainte-Marie. Born on the Piapot Cree Indian reserve, the challenges of the Native American is her passion. But what she is most known for for is the impact she made as a singer and songwriter. Her song "Until It's Time for You to Go" was recorded by Elvis Presley, Barbra Streisand and Cher. Her "Universal Soldier" became the anthem of the peace movement and many of her songs became billboard hits. Since 1996 she has limited her concert appearances to about twenty a year, speaking engagements to about the same number and focused her time mostly on the Cradleboard Teaching Project, using her multimedia skills to create accurate, enriching core curriculum based in Native American cultural perspectives. SMAC is lucky to be one of the twenty!

Package includes: One nights lodging with full country breakfast, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $425

October 1 (Thursday): Richard Thompson
One of the best guitar players of our lifetime! Some of the most moving songs you've ever heard are his and when he sings them, he becomes who he writes about. His early years were spent with Fairpoint Convention, but he has always been on the cutting edge of the creative music scene. A quick sell out.
Here he is doing a favorite tune:

October 15 (Thursday): Kingston Trio
In 1957 The Kingston Trio emerged from San Francisco's North Beach club scene to take the country by storm, bringing the rich tradition of American folk music into the mainstream for the first time. During the late 50s & early 60s, the Trio enjoyed unprecedented record sales and worldwide fame, while influencing the musical tastes of a generation. Through changing times, the Trio has played on, remaining popular for a simple reason... great songs that sound as good today as the first time you heard them. And fifty-two years after "Tom Dooley" shot to the top of the charts, the Trio is still on the road thirty weeks a year, bringing back all the great memories and making new ones. SMAC is lucky enough to get them during one of those weeks. And speaking of memories, check out this great Andy Williams show footage of the trio way back when:

October 16 (Friday): David Francey
From carpenter to songwriter! Since leaving construction and recording Torn Screen Door in 1999 Scottish-born Canadian, David Francey is recognized as one of today’s finest singer-songwriters. Earlier this year Francey’s CD, Right of Passage, earned him his third JUNO (Canada’s top music award) in less than 5 years. Francey recently had the honor of receiving the prestigious SOCAN Folk Music Award. He is a great story teller and a terrific performer... a very fine addition to the SMAC roster.

Package includes: One nights lodging with full country breakfast, dinner at the Inn before the show (gratuity for dinner is included, but alcohol and additional gratuity is not), a shuttle to and from the show and two tickets to the show. $385

October 17 (Saturday): Savoy Family Cajun Band
Featuring Ann Savoy and her talented family, they are an honored name in Cajun music. Carrying on Traditional Cajun Music The Savoy Family Cajun Band plays honed down, hard-core Cajun music laced with an earthy sensuality. Though the old tunes have been revived and returned to new life intensity in their hands, the Savoy Family Cajun band doesn’t play from a studied angle. The musicians in the band, Marc and Ann Savoy and their sons Joel and Wilson, each hold their own as strong individual group members, making up a tight, intense sound. Wilson was here last year with the Pine Leaf Boys.
NOTE: because of limited dinner seating available to make room for a little dance floor, lodging package seating will be in the balcony.

October 18 (Sunday): Martin Sexton
"Plain and simple... he is one of the best singers I have heard in my lifetime. I was lucky enough to have him sing on one of my albums when he was kicking around Boston, many, many years ago.  Little did I know how big a star he would become and we most humbly welcome him for a second time to Stone Mountain." Carol Noonan, Stone Mountain Arts Center
"His outstanding taste in songwriting as well as a soul marinated voice that can easily be compared to the likes of a young Steve Winwood or Van Morrison." Rolling Stone
"The best live performer I’ve ever seen." John Mayer

October 25 (Sunday): Nanci Griffith
Up close and personal! Whether performing her own poetically evocative material or the compositions of her influences, friends and peers, Grammy award winning Nanci Griffith possesses a powerful gift for inhabiting the songs she sings - for communicating unspoken intimacy and heartache through her tender voice and lilting, delicate phrasing. She's back for the second time (and sold out quickly last year).

November 7 (Saturday): Marty Stuart
Hooray! Everyone needs their Marty fix, and no Superlative show is better than at Stone Mountain. They have become so dear to SMAC and to everyone else who gets to see this amazing country legend put on what is still one of the best shows around. From bluegrass, to old country, to Stuart originals, Marty and this amazing band slide easily from musical styles making every song uniquely "superlative". Don't miss it... only one show this year!

January 23, 2010 (Saturday): Ralph Stanley & the Clinch Mountain Boys
The honorary father of bluegrass is back! His distinctive voice is legendary and was featured in the "O Brother, Where Art Thou" soundtrack. His "stanley" style banjo playing is just as famous and if you're lucky he'll do some clawhammerin' on his favorite 5 string. Honorary is right!

March 28, 2010 (Sunday): Suzanne Vega
Widely regarded as one of the most brilliant songwriters of her generation, Suzanne Vega emerged as a leading figure of the folk-music revival of the early 1980s when, accompanying herself on acoustic guitar, she sang what has been labeled contemporary folk or neo-folk songs of her own creation in Greenwich Village clubs.

April 2, 2010 (Friday): John Gorka
John Gorka is an honored icon of folk tradition. Energetic acoustic music that is not a trend, not a fad, but an expression of everyday life, is his trademark. John's rich baritone voice and unique songcraft weave a magical spell that can only be described as 'Gorka'. "Gorka is widely heralded for the sophisticated intelligence and provocative originality of his songs." Boston Globe

April 17, 2010 (Saturday): Tim O'Brien
Tim is like to an American folkie - that conjures up a lot of styles and that is Tim. His songs tell stories like a good folk singer should, but his sound is pure "Americana".
