Any devoted bluegrass listener old enough to remember the ’80s will no doubt recall banjo great Tony Trischka’s days in Skyline, a group that made a name for itself playing funk music with bluegrass instruments. Though they disbanded in 1988, the old boys — Barry Mitterhoff (mandolin), Danny Weiss (guitar) and Larry Cohen (bass) — will join the influential picker on stage again for this special reunion concert. Show host Gene Shay says to expect old hits and some holiday-spirit-inspiring selections from Trischka’s legendary Christmas show.
Fri., Dec. 21, 8 p.m., $20-$25, The PSALM Salon, 5841 Overbrook Ave., 215-477-7578, psalmsalon.com.
