Music at the Market: Wood Family Tradition

Good food, agriculture and bluegrass pickin' are staples in Surry County. This summer and fall, these three regional hallmarks come together with the Music at the Market concert series on Friday evenings at Dobson Farmers Market.

This installment features Wood Family Tradition. Family values, legacy, faith and humor are just a few things that this group brings to the stage with more than 150 years of combined experience in the bluegrass and bluegrass gospel genres. Wood Family Tradition traces its roots back to legendary banjoist and songwriter Al Wood. Band members Mike and Bobby are his sons, and Jason is his grandson.

Food trucks for the evening are Shikora Express on Wheels (Japanese), Mermaids on the Go (fried seafood), and Station 1978 Firehouse Peanuts.

Food trucks begin serving at 6 p.m., and bluegrass pickin' starts at 7 p.m. Admission is free. Lawn chairs encouraged.
