Great Barrington, Mass.—The Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center will present American roots band Old Crow Medicine Show on Friday, April 25 at 8 p.m.
Old Crow Medicine Show is known for their blend of traditional country, old-time string music, bluegrass, and folk. Formed in 1998 in Ithaca, N.Y., the band rose to prominence after being discovered by bluegrass legend Doc Watson.
