  • South Hill Cider 550 Sandbank Road Ithaca, NY, 14850 United States (map)

Cider, Food & Live Music from 5:30-8:30PM for Community Concert Series, every 2nd and 4th Thursday for the next few months!

Rooted in old-time tradition, Richie Stearns eclectic banjo playing defies genre and we are so fortunate every time he plays in our tasting room! Some weeks Richie will play solo and some weeks he will be joined by another local musician. Watch for updated posts for who is joining him!

RICHIE STEARNS first discovered the pleasures of the old time banjo when he was 14. He’s traveled round the world, performing both traditional and his own original music, finding ways to collaborate with musicians from five continents (Africa/Asia/North America, Australia, Europe) as well as local musicians from diverse musical backgrounds (classical, jazz, country, R&B, and more). Over the past three decades, he’s written original music for film scores and dance ensembles as well his own bands (The Horse Flies, Evil City String Band, Ti Ti Chickapea, Donna the Buffalo, and the Renegades, among them) and collaborated with artists from a variety of disciplines to present public performances on stages through the U.S., Canada, and Europe, as well as on radio and television.
