Events

We’re excited to team up with the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) Greenville Chapter to host a monthly Songwriters Open Mic Night at Wild Yarrow Brewing!

Taking place on the second Tuesday of every month, this event is an opportunity for local songwriters to share their original music, connect with fellow musicians, and showcase their creativity in a welcoming, laid-back environment.

Whether you’re a seasoned songwriter or just getting comfortable sharing your music with an audience, we’d love to hear what you’ve been working on!

Not a songwriter? Come grab a beer, discover some local talent, and support Greenville’s growing original music community. 🍻

 First Open Mic: Tuesday, November 10th

 Sign-ups begin at 6:00 PM

 Performances from 6:30–8:30 PM

📍 Wild Yarrow Brewing | 603 E. Stone Ave., Greenville, SC

To celebrate the fact that one of our favorite bands, Greensky Bluegrass, is coming to GVL - we have decided to throw the  extremely unofficial Preparty.  Mike Oregano will be bringing his one man band to the taproom for the occasion.   And since the show is less than ten minutes away, you'll have some time to hang before heading to the show.  

Truly a unique act unlike anything yet, Mike Oregano has fully commercialized both the aesthetic and sonic details of the "One Man Band" concept. Performing in a unique Reggae/Hip Hop/Jazz style, he is sure to turn heads wherever he is rockin’!

Mike uses his feet to hit the drums as well as an array of fully intuitive pedal boards complete with: loopers, bass splits, synthesizer sounds, etc. He records the rhythm section (guitar and bass) on the spot, and layers over it with drums, solos, fills, etc. all while singing, rapping, or talk boxing, and soloing on his guitar simultaneously.

Hosted by Matt of Swamp Rabbit Bluegrass, this mostly instrumental jam session highlights some of the finest pickers in the Upstate in an intimate setting. Bring an instrument and be part of this unique pickin' session or just kick back with a beer and enjoy the tunes. 

Coyote Rodeo is an Asheville, North Carolina–based experimental bluegrass band built around the songwriting of John Colby Elswick (guitar/banjo), Chad Brown (mandolin) and Connor Kozlosky (Guitar). Featuring Jackson Weldon on dobro and pedal steel and Brad Poplin on bass, the band blends deep-rooted tradition with expansive arrangements, improvisation, and modern edge. With driving rhythms, dynamic live energy, and a sound that stretches beyond the boundaries of acoustic music, Coyote Rodeo is carving out its place in the next wave of bluegrass — equally at home in listening rooms, theaters, and festival fields.

Matt and Caleb from Swamp Rabbit Bluegrass will join us to pick some tunes on a Sunday afternoon.

We're beyond excited to welcome Jason Carter to Wild Yarrow Brewing on Thursday, January 14th!

A three-time Grammy Award winner and five-time IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year, Jason has spent over 30 years playing fiddle with the legendary Del McCoury Band and is a founding member of the Travelin' McCourys.

With deep roots in Kentucky bluegrass, Jason has shared the stage and studio with some of the biggest names in music, including Billy Strings, Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, Ricky Skaggs, and Steve Earle.

From traditional bluegrass to the progressive sounds of today's scene, Jason brings decades of experience and some seriously incredible fiddling wherever he goes.

We're thrilled to have a musician of this caliber joining us for what promises to be a special evening of live music. Come hang with us!
