Americana/bluegrass sensation The Darren Nicholson Band will perform at 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 17, at Cataloochee Ranch in Maggie Valley. 

A Grammy nominee and winner of 13 International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) awards, Nicholson has taken his own brand of mountain music around the world.

A regular for years on Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry and a founding member of acclaimed Haywood County bluegrass group Balsam Range, Nicholson now spends his time recording, writing new songs and performing, either solo or with his popular band.

Admission is $35 per person. For tickets and reservations, go to cataloocheeranch.com/ranch-events/live-music.
