About This Event

The story of New Augusta Bluegrass Band begins in May of 2008 when bluegrass pals Dave Schroeder (guitar), Lisa Wagoner (upright bass), and John Gates (mandolin) came together for a pick-up gig - and never looked back! Joined by multi-instrumentalist Roger Banister, this Central Indiana ensemble of talented pickers and singers continues to pursue their mutual interest in exploring virtually any genre, featuring a vibrant mix of Bill Monroe style tunes, newgrass, swing, old-time, inventive originals, and a few surprising covers.
