Linda Mitchell Jazz Wednesdays at The Bush Farmhouse

Linda Mitchell takes Wednesday nights at The Bush Farmhouse back to the old standards. Her weekly jazz and blues sets pull from composers ranging from Duke Ellington to Thelonious Monk, played live over dinner.

The Bush Farmhouse is a South African restaurant in downtown Black Mountain, known for the Bunny Chow curry featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Jazz with dinner is a good fit for a midweek night out east of Asheville.

Linda Mitchell plays every Wednesday from 7 to 9 PM at The Bush Farmhouse, 151 S Ridgeway Ave in Black Mountain. Book a table if you want to settle in for the full set.

The Bush Farmhouse is a lively South African-inspired restaurant and bar located in a beautifully restored 1912 farmhouse in Black Mountain. Guests enjoy creative cocktails, hearty brunch and dinner, and a warm, open-air atmosphere surrounded by gardens and friendly farm animals.
