Performing live inside our tropical oasis, the glass house conservatory! Friday, December 27th, from 6 to 8:30pm. No cover. Open to all.
Bio:
Chickenhead Blues Band’s history begins in 1999 with weekly legendary Thursday evening shows playing blues tunes at Durty nelly’s pub. A few personnel changes led to the more fusion influenced repertoire presented now. You will hear a taste of New Orleans, Jazz Crusaders, Tom Scott and LA Express, Jimi Hendrix mixed, in with some original songs, as well.
Band members:
Aric van Brocklin – Guitar
Skip Haga – Keyboards
Jeff Louderback – Drums
Jack Sheehan – Sax
Vic Brown – Bass
There will NOT be a food truck for this event (12/27). As always, we welcome you to bring your picnics, pick up take-out on your way, or put together a DYI Charcuterie plate with the assorted items that we carry in the Tasting Room – cheese, crackers, meats, tapenades, etc.
Our live music events typically take place within the beautiful space of the glass conservatory, our indoor tropical oasis. On occasion, the music may perform outdoors, under the eaves of the back deck. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available first come, no reservations.
Picnics are welcome throughout the property, barring any outside alcohol. We have plentiful seating areas both inside the conservatory, and outdoors along the back deck, as well as in front of the conservatory, and there are several picnic tables spread across the lakefront. Feel free to bring your blankets/chairs. Pop up tents and personal grills are permitted for use in the overflow grassy tailgate and picnic areas.
Glass House Winery wines are available by the bottle and glass, and traditional tastings are being conducted at the Tasting Room Bar. Wine Flights are also available, these are great for those who prefer to do a self guided tasting, simply order at the bar and take back to your table.
Children are welcome, please supervise them at all times. Consider bringing along games or other items to entertain them while seated.
Well behaved dogs are also welcome but must remain on their leash at all times.
We couldn’t be more thrilled to host the launch of the JASON BURKE BAND COMEBACK TOUR. After a 2 year hiatus they’re eager and excited to return to performing live! Our tropical paradise here in Free Union will be the first stop on their musical revival, with Caroline Burke, Jason Burke, and Bill Staton returning as your guides for the song filled adventure. They’ve been busy during their downtime and have added some new tunes to their repertoire. Be sure to come early for the best seats and sit back with your wine in hand to enjoy the ride — song by song. Sunday, December 29th from 2 to 5pm. Open to all! No cover; no reservations needed.
