The Beer & Banjos music series focuses on traditional and acoustic music from North Carolina. The original Beer & Banjos series takes place in Raleigh, and a second one is in Durham. The newest location is Carrboro.
The house band, the Beer & Banjos All-Stars, kicks off each night with a performance from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Usually they’re followed by a headliner from 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., although on occasion the All-Stars play the whole show. Read on for the upcoming Beer & Banjos Carrboro lineup. Also, keep reading for a list of outdoor music from around the Triangle.
