The Bad Oats

Tonight is our monthly Passim Monday Discovery Series sponsored by Nine Athens Music! Show kicks off @ 8pm with The Bad Oats and Hannah O'Brien & Grant Flick. Come discover these amazing groups in action.
The Bad Oats are a progressive string band based out of Nashville. Since they formed in 2019, they have been making a name for themselves in the Roots Music Community, performing at festivals and stages around the country, including The Fresh Grass Festival and The Ossipee Valley Music Festival. They are the winners of the 2021 Telefunken Band Competition at The Podunk Bluegrass Festival.
Hannah O'Brien & Grant Flick play a mix of original compositions and traditional pieces from various fiddling traditions. While the duo feels at home on double fiddle, they also change instrumentation often incorporating tenor guitar and nyckelharpa. Their musical interests are broad and as a result their programs showcase an eclectic assemblage of repertoire.

Full kitchen menu available.
