Backstage Pass ft. Chicken Wire Empire

The second Thursday each month, this event features an up-and-coming band that plays on the Weill Center stage, with their backs to the auditorium. Why? Because the audience is “backstage!” Guests get an all-access pass to hang out backstage with the band, complete with bar access, appetizers for purchase, and seating – and room to dance! Limited to the first 150 people.

Chicken Wire Empire is a progressive bluegrass band. Its five members have spent a lifetime honing their craft, with deep roots in bluegrass, jamband, classical, and other genres. CWE brings the foot-stomping good-times to audiences of all ages, just make sure to wear your dancing shoes.
