Straight outta Northern Arkansas, the “newgrass” string quartet Arkansauce will perform at Hop Springs Beer Park in Murfreesboro on July 7. Arkansauce takes a new approach to classic bluegrass and country influences, adding saxophone riffs to the improv solos from the many string instruments that the group features as it blends traditional Americana music with some modern touches.
The band, from the small Fayetteville, Arkansas, music scene, first got together in 2011. Its first album, All Day Long, was released in 2015, and the group has routinely released several albums in the years since.
Murfreesboro is just one of the stops on the current Arkansauce tour as it plays several music festivals from Colorado to Mississippi. Arkansauce performs at Hop Springs Beer Park, 6790 John Bragg Hwy., on Thursday July 7, at 8 p.m. Find tickets on Eventbrite.
