About this concert
Not Loud Concerts Presents…
Time to stomp your feet and let your cares float away with Not Loud Concerts presents Bluegrass Night at All Saints Episcopal Church.
Bluegrass music is all about community, fun and a casual good time, so come on out to a beautiful historic redwood church located in San Leandro. This beautiful church built in the early 20th century has great acoustics - just right for a Not Loud concert!
The evening will be hosted by world-traveling bluegrass band, Dirty Cello, who will play a 1 hour show that presents all sorts of bluegrass music from traditional to definitely not traditional. They'll be joined by special guest fiddler Michael Lu.
Together they'll play everything from Bill Monroe hits to California style new-grass.
Although held in the church sanctuary, this is not a religious event and is open to all, with fairly comfortable seats, carefully reinforced sound and a casual and fun environment. Come shake the rafters with the Dirty Cello band that's been described as,
“When lead guitar is replaced by the sound of hot licks on a cello...bluegrass rises to a new dimension. Dirty Cello makes its style of string music to inspire audiences to swing, sway and dance.” - Ashland Daily Tidings

Dirty Cello is an amazing band who is worth seeing again and again!
They have new material added each concert along with some of my favorites, “Don’t Call Me Honey” and “The Ballad of the Onion Rings.”
A must see!

Dirty Cello Biography
Dirty Cello...cello like you’ve never heard before.
From China to Italy, and all over the U.S., Dirty Cello brings the world a high energy and unique spin on blues and bluegrass. Led by vivacious cross-over cellist, Rebecca Roudman, Dirty Cello is cello like you’ve never heard before. From down home blues with a wailing cello to virtuosic stompin’ bluegrass, Dirty Cello is a band that gets your heart thumping and your toes tapping!
"Dirty Cello’s music is all over the map: funky, carnival, romantic, sexy, tangled, electric, fiercely rhythmic, and textured, and only occasionally classical." Lou Fancher, Oakland Magazine.
"The band plays every style imaginable, and does some fantastic covers. (Their rendition of “Purple Haze” is incredible.) But what is most spectacular about them is hearing the depth of soul in Roudman’s playing—it goes beyond what most people would expect from the instrument. She plays it with so much heart, you’ll wonder why more bands don’t have a cellist." Good Times Santa Cruz
"The group seamlessly careens from blues to bluegrass and rock in a way that really shouldn't make sense but somehow does." LA Times
