Play & Learn

Traditional Music

Our roots run deep.

A group of friends founded PineCone in 1984 to bring traditional music down the mountain to Raleigh. We've been jamming ever since.

PineCone is now a resident company at the Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts. We celebrate music with roots through concerts, jams, workshops and in our role as producer of the festival IBMA Bluegrass Live! powered by PNC.
