Tara Mills is a singer and songwriter in Charlottesville, Virginia. Inspired by the Blue Ridge Mountains and the rich musical traditions tied to them, Tara Mills describes her music as, "original blue ridge mountain folk." Influenced by bluegrass, old country, and traditional mountain folk, she creates an original sound that captures true human feeling and emotion.
In Tara’s current project, Tara Mills and Jimmy Stelling, she combines her lyrics and voice with Tennessee native Jimmy Stelling to create a very powerful yet driving original sound described as a mix of modern day folk, bluegrass, and americana.
Jimmy Stelling is the son of Geoff Stelling, founder of Stelling banjos, and is one of the founders of the successfully touring band, The Hackensaw Boys, out of Charlottesville, Virginia. Jimmy’s unique drive and tasteful melodies on the banjo compliment and harmonize to the sweet songs and emotion the two capture while playing.

Blue Ridge Pizza Co. is a 100% wood-fired pizza catering company in Charlottesville, Virginia. They focus on locally produced, seasonal ingredients whenever possible and love picking up toppings from the farmers market on the morning of an event.

Every Friday night, the Tasting Room provides music and a food truck for a relaxing experience. Child friendly and dog friendly.

Check out  Sam Cregger  this Friday, April 8 from 6-9pm.

At the same time, he draws inspiration from the western stories and characters of John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, and Cormac McCarthy.
When he’s not playing music, Sam works as a local farmer outside of Charlottesville, Virginia.
