About

Bold, blistering, and unapologetically original, Big Richard is one of the most compelling acts in modern bluegrass today. This all-female quartet blends virtuosic musicianship with biting wit, emotional depth, and fearless social commentary, creating performances that are as thought-provoking as they are wildly entertaining.

Touring in support of their latest album, Pet, Big Richard brings the full force of their live show to the Sherbino. Recorded live to tape to capture the raw electricity of their performances, Pet showcases the band at their most urgent and locked-in—stacking hard-driving originals, inventive instrumentals, and striking reinterpretations of traditional and contemporary songs into a set that hits fast, loud, and deep.

Big Richard’s lineup—bass, mandolin and guitar, fiddle, and cello—creates a powerful and uncommon sonic palette for bluegrass, allowing the band to move seamlessly between ferocity and finesse. Their shows are marked by blistering solos, tight harmonies, irreverent stage banter, and moments of surprising vulnerability that pull audiences in and keep them there.

The band’s name and aesthetic are intentionally provocative, reclaiming space in a genre long dominated by men and challenging audiences to laugh, feel slightly uncomfortable, and think more deeply about the world around them. Yet amid the intensity, Big Richard leaves room for tenderness—closing many shows with intimate, unamplified moments that transform the room into a shared, collective experience.

Whether you’re a longtime bluegrass fan or new to the genre, Big Richard delivers a night of music that feels alive, human, and impossible to ignore.

Reserved tables are available in very limited quantity (just five), offering a guaranteed seat and table with your name on it for added comfort and convenience.

Join us for a high-energy night with an open floor for dancing and seats available around the perimeter. This is a band best experienced live—don’t miss them.
