Sunshine. Blue skies. The whisper of a breeze.
It all came together Thursday to make for one pretty spring day, and Asheville’s wonderful street musicians took notice. The buskers were out in force, giving voice their music. Click on the link below to get a taste of the Blue Grass Lumber Company, who performed at the corner of Page and Battery Park avenues Thursday afternoon.

We share your inclination to get the whole story. For the past 25 years, Xpress has been committed to in-depth, balanced reporting about the greater Asheville area. We want everyone to have access to our stories. That’s a big part of why we’ve never charged for the paper or put up a paywall.
We’re pretty sure that you know journalism faces big challenges these days. Advertising no longer pays the whole cost. Media outlets around the country are asking their readers to chip in. Xpress needs help, too. We hope you’ll consider signing up to be a member of Xpress. For as little as $5 a month — the cost of a craft beer or kombucha — you can help keep local journalism strong. It only takes a moment.
The comments section is here to provide a platform for civil dialogue on the issues we face together as a local community. Xpress is committed to offering this platform for all voices, but when the tone of the discussion gets nasty or strays off topic, we believe many people choose not to participate. Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service. Thank you for being part of this effort to promote respectful discussion.

Thanks Jason! I am on vacation down on the other side of NC. Nice to get off a lovely early spring beach and have a touch of Asheville awaiting!
I tried telling jokes outside of the Flying Frog. A 4 hour 13 minute set, only 14 laughs and .63 cents. huh
interesting that you would use a stock photo from last year’s belle cher to highlight something that happened last thursday night.
