Tosco Music note on directions from Charlotte:
The hour drive past Albemarle is a beautiful ride through the countryside! We find it simplest to use South Stanley High School in your maps app. Immediately after the HS pond, turn right onto Herring Rd that will end when you bear right onto Old Cottonville Rd, pass Hinson Rd on the right, then slow to turn left into Juneberry Ridge.

Make it a day trip with hikes or kayaking at Morrow Mountain State Park only 20 minutes from Juneberry Ridge!

SEE WHAT'S
COMING UP

  • The music parties are an indie-music institution in Charlotte, so popular they often fill a 1,200-seat hall, with a roster of performers that has included everyone from American Idol contestants to The Avett Brothers.

  • What started 20 years ago as a jam session in John Tosco’s living room has bloomed into one of the region’s most unique regional events – and a coveted gig for unsigned artists.

  • A Tosco Music Party is a theatre in the round of sorts for acoustic musicians. It's a medium that breaks down artificial barriers between entertainers and audience.

  • Maybe you’ve never heard the new folk trio out of Chapel Hill or the dulcimer player from Appalachia. Maybe you’ll marvel over a double-necked guitar solo or a 13-year-old classical pianist. Whatever you’re seeking, this incredible, quarterly variety show will make you grateful to have John Tosco curating your musical adventure.

  • Think of Tosco Music Party as the musical equivalent of walking into Ben & Jerry's and saying: 'I'd like a spoonful of everything, please.'
