Name: An Evening With Bring Out Yer Dead
Start: 2027-03-05T20:00:00.000-05:00
End: 2027-03-05T20:00:00.000-05:00
Location: The Grey Eagle Music Hall & Taqueria

An Evening With Bring Out Yer Dead plays The Grey Eagle on Friday, March 5 at 8:00 PM. Easy one to plan a night around.

The Grey Eagle pulls in bluegrass acts that feel like actual shows instead of costume parties, which matters when you're standing in a listening room where people actually shut up during the quiet parts. The taqueria on-site means you can grab food without bailing, and the RAD/Clingman location keeps things relaxed even when the room hits capacity around 550.

The Grey Eagle is a River Arts District music venue and Asheville's longest-running all-ages room, with something on the calendar almost every night: indie bands, bluegrass legends, punk and the occasional hip-hop set. It started in the 1990s in a garage and grew into a 550-capacity hall with a big stage, great sound, an open dance floor, a patio and an in-house taqueria pouring craft beer.

Locals call The Grey Eagle the real deal for Asheville music, from local bands to national tours. The crowd is welcoming and into it, and the venue often hosts benefit shows and community events.
