Lexington, MA — On Saturday, December 6, the Boston Bluegrass Union kicks off its 33rd concert season with a double dose of pure mountain soul with the pairing of the James King Band along with Danny Paisley and the Southern Grass.

The result is some of the most riveting, dynamic, and heart-tugging sounds in bluegrass or any genre.
