BOLD "Bored-with-OnLine-Dating" Singles 45 & Over / Dulles

Ken's Garage Band is a classic rock band that plays the hits of the 60's, 70s, 80s, and 90s. C'mon out and let's support one of our favorite local bands. Playing outside. Come join us and partake in BBQ.

Inspired by masterful rock bands of the 70’s & 80’s, the Darby Brothers grew up listening to many of the songs still played on the radio today. Four brothers, from several different mothers, thrown together in a life journey to inspire and speak through music. They grew up together, went to school together, hang out together and share a passion for great music.
The Darby Brothers recreate epic songs from Journey, Zeppelin, Queen, Foreigner, The Doors., Hendrix, Petty and many more. We will get there at 2:30 to grab a couple tables in front of the stage. Bring a chair for added comfort. The band starts at 3:00. Since we will be outside everyone can bring food to share. If you prefer to purchase food the winery offers, charcuterie, flatbreads and hot pretzels. In addition there will be a food truck.
Nestled on Lake Manassas in Gainesville VA, The Winery at Sunshine Ridge Farm is the only local winery with a breathtaking lakefront view. Their locally grown grapes and variety of wines offer something for every wine enthusiast. Their farm winery has grapes, fruit and hops planted to produce some delicious craft beverages. There is always something new being brewed!

If you love musicians who can tell a story, lift a room, and make you feel like you’ve known them forever, come meet Mark Rust. Jessica first heard him in a college coffeehouse in Troy, NY decades ago — now he’s bringing that same magic to our house concert series.
Mark Rust sings with strength and clarity, accompanying himself on guitar, piano, banjo, fiddle, mountain and hammered dulcimer. His charismatic personality combined with a delightful blend of wit and humor, creates a clear and consistent image of the world as he wants it to be. His love for his audience is genuinely conveyed and immediately returned. Mark captivates his audience and quickly makes them an integral part of the performance, and in that moment, they become his family.
Yet, the songs, the voice, and the instruments, are still not the whole story. Mark infuses his concerts with an infectious sense of fun as he shares his down-home anecdotes and humorous stories. In the end, you have been treated to a voyage through your own experiences during an evening that is both memorable and moving. His music will touch your heart and leave you laughing.
