The Mountain Rose Concert Series

The Mountain Rose is a small-hall concert series featuring local and regional artists with more talent than exposure. We pride ourselves on presenting high-quality performances to an audience that really LISTENS. That is the beauty of a concert setting. Our performers are primarily acoustic artists, mostly in the folk, traditional, and singer-songwriter categories. The concerts are run in Kent, Ohio, with the normal season running October through May. We occasionally (twice a year) produce all-day festivals at the Happy Days Visitor Center in The Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

Since April of 1999 we have been producing a radio show of folk programming on WAPS-FM in Akron (91.3). Hosted by Tom Ball, it is on from 9.00-11.00 pm on Tuesday evenings, and features many local and regional artists. We usually have a live guest performer. We hope you will join us on 91.3, The Summit.  You can hear "Just Plain Folk" in real-time at www.913thesummit.com
