The annual Nebraska Bluegrass Concert Series concludes this Wednesday with some amazing acts...

Taking the stage:

Appalachian Road Show - Built around a shared commitment to preserving and celebrating the culture, stories, and spirit of Appalachia, the band combines elite musicianship, powerful songwriting, soaring harmonies, and deeply rooted storytelling into an unforgettable live experience.

Joining Appalachian Road Show, are the Shucks Brothers - A Lincoln-based three-piece, who tip their hats to the great old bluegrass masters such as Bill Monroe and the Stanley Brothers. These guys have been playing professionally since they were young pups yet they still manage to surprise each other and their audiences with dazzling improvisation, silly humor and a whole lot of fun.

Meet the newest fixture at our Haymarket location: a 1972 Swedish-made Crescent Världsmästarcykeln. Gifted to The Mill by longtime friend, John Wayne, this bright orange beauty is a nod to our roots—before we were one of Lincoln’s first European inspired espresso bars, The Mill started out inside Free Wheelin' bike shop in the 1970's. Cruise down and check it out for yourself!
