Uncle Henry’s Favorites is a four-piece old-time string band with more than twenty years of Charlottesville history, and Elizabeth LaPrelle sings traditional ballads.
George Melvin wears many hats (not all of them as cool as this one), and his long-standing gig at South Street even has him wearing several at the same time. For the “Group Sound” format, Melvin plays several keyboards at once, using his left hand for walking basslines that match up with jazzy drum loops and working the sustain pedal to give the illusion of multiple right-hand parts.
The infamous guitarist and bassist keeps jamming out with the locals.

Debbie Hunter and MIRA perform the most badass Renaissance music program you’re likely to encounter this century:
In 1307, a special group of warrior priests called the Knights Templar, having gained more power than the pope and certain kings were comfortable with, were ambushed and practically wiped out. This happened on Friday the 13th, hence the lasting ‘superstition’ surrounding the bad luck. The program was prepared for the 700th anniversary of the ambush.
Highly recommended for fans of black metal, obviously.
