City Winery Washington DC presents country rock and roots music mainstays Nitty Gritty Dirt Band live in concert on Friday November 11 at 8 PM. Performing their hits, their history, and the music of Bob Dylan, the band brings their enduring signature style to the City Winery stage.

Many veteran bands trade on nostalgia, on replication of past glories, and on recycled emotions from younger, more carefree days. The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band trades on a mix of reimagined classics and compelling newer works. The group formed in 1966 as a Long Beach, California jug band, scored its first charting single in 1967, and embarked on a self-propelled ride through folk, country, rock ‘n’ roll, pop, bluegrass, and the amalgam now known as “Americana.”
