| BBQ and Music Festival in Northern Virginia BBQ & Music Festival in Broadlands Virginia Saturday June 21 and Sunday June 22. Featuring blues, roots, bluesgrass and more music styles. Sol Creech will be one of the featured music performers. The sounds of music will mingle with the smells of pit-roasted chickens at Chicken and Pickin', a two-day music-and-food extravaganza held outdoors (weather permitting) at Clyde's at Willow Creek Farm in Broadlands, VA, on Saturday, June 21st, and Sunday, June 22nd. Music of Sol Creech and Friends will set the soundtrack, while visitors picnic on barbecued birds, hot dogs, coleslaw, potato salad, cornbread, berry shortcake, watermelon and soda or beer ( half chicken and choice of two sides). Sol will be returning from a tour in France and the Blue Mountain Music Festival in Virginia. On Sunday June 22, Sol will perform jazz, rock, blues, and more, along-side stand up bassist Greg Watkins (of the Washington DC group the Sketches & the Baltimore Symphony) and percussionist "extraordinaire" Ron Goad (voted several years for Most Supportive of Washington DC Music). Chicken & Pickin Festival Guests are encouraged to tour the picturesque pond, the restored barns and the vegetable and herb gardens that grow produce for Clydes restaurant. Other musical performers will range from bluegrass to folk, and blues to roots rock. The scheduled performance times are June 21, noon–10 pm; and June 22, noon–7 pm. Long ago Clyde's Restaurant Group made the decision to bypass traditional commercial produce routes and buy instead from local farms. From spring through autumn, our fruits and vegetables are always fresh and of the highest quality. Likewise, we source many of our meats, fish, poultry and seafood direct from their native regions. Today our menus are created around these fresh, natural ingredients, using classic American recipes that showcase their flavor and texture. Each restaurant has its own favorites and specialties. So each Clyde's menu is as original as our restaurants. Clydes of Broadlands is located just west of Dulles Airport in Loudoun County, at Willow Creek Farm 42920 Broadlands Boulevard, Broadlands, VA 20148. the phone contact is: 571.209.1200 write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Jazz News :: home page |
