About The Junior Sisk Band

Junior Sisk stands as one of today’s most admired voices in bluegrass music. A proud son of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, Sisk brings raw emotion, timeless authenticity, and a deep respect for tradition to every performance. With roots planted firmly in the sounds of the Stanley Brothers, Larry Sparks, Dave Evans and the Johnson Mountain Boys, his music echoes the heart of classic bluegrass while continuing to push it forward.

Sisk first made his mark as a songwriter in the early 1990s, crafting fan favorites like “The Game I Can’t Win” and “Tears Are Blinding Me” for the Lonesome River Band. He soon moved into the spotlight as a performer with groups like Wyatt Rice & Santa Cruz, Blueridge, and his own band, Junior Sisk & Ramblers Choice. His 2011 album Heart of a Song was a breakthrough moment, earning IBMA Album of the Year and launching a string of awards, including IBMA Song of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year.


Giving is Living

We want concerts at Pangea Gardens to translate into benefiting young people in our local communities. While our Open House is free to the public, we encourage everyone who attends to open their hearts, dig in their pockets and make a tax deductible donation to The Handmade Music School, a nonprofit music school based in Floyd.

Handmade Music School

Their mission is to cultivate and strengthen community through experiences in music, dance, art and food rooted in Appalachian traditions. In fact, a number of very talented students from the School will be strolling the grounds and doing impromptu jams for everyone’s enjoyment prior to the concert.

Donation information will be available at the venue on the day of the Open House or may be accessed via HandmadeMusicSchool.org. We assure you, any amount of generosity will go a long way for any student of the School.

Come join us for a very special day and experience this wonderful new venue being opened for the enjoyment of good folks like you!

Pangea Gardens is located at 336 Mat Road SW, Laurel Fork, Virginia.
