Compton & Newberry

Join us on Thursday, September 25, 2025 at the Southwest Virginia Cultural Center & Marketplace for a FREE concert by music legends Mike Compton and Joe Newberry.

Mike Compton and Joe Newberry collaborate with a vision that is both modern and ageless, digging deep into early country music, blues, and other heartbeat sounds of traditional music.

Their performances at home and abroad, from the Grand Ole Opry and Prairie Home Companion in the U.S., to Australia's National Folk Festival and Glasgow's Celtic Connections overseas, showcase soul-stirring instrumentals, numbers from the great American songbag, as well as newly composed songs and tunes that are already taking their rightful place in the tradition.

This free performance is made possible by the Southwest Virginia Cultural Center & Marketplace, The Crooked Road, and the Virginia Commission for the Arts
