The Gaillard Center on Monday announced that Old Crow Medicine Show will perform at the venue on Sunday, March 1st, 2020.
Old Crow Medicine Show started busking on street corners in 1998, winning audiences along the way with their energy and spirit. They eventually found themselves in Boone, North Carolina where they caught the attention of folk icon Doc Watson while playing in front of a pharmacy. He invited the band to play at his festival, MerleFest, helping to launch their career. Shortly thereafter the band was hired to entertain crowds between shows at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, TN.
It's been over twenty years since these humble beginnings. The band has gone on to receive the honor of being inducted as members of the Grand Ole Opry, and have won two Grammy Awards: “Best Folk Album” for Remedy (2014) and “Best Long Form Music Video” for Big Easy Express (2013). Additionally, their classic single, “Wagon Wheel”, received the RIAA's Platinum certification in 2013 for selling over 1,000,000 copies.
Tickets for the band’s Charleston show go on sale Friday, January 17th at 11 am. Prices range from $39.50-$85 (plus applicable fees). Members receive pre-sale access. Get pre-sale access by becoming a Charleston Gaillard Center Member. Contact their Development Office at development@gaillardcenter.
