Alison Krauss & Union Station ft. Jerry Douglas with Theo Lawrence – Part of Essentia Health’s Concert Series
2026-06-16 19:00 - 21:00 | Bluestem Ampitheater
Alison Krauss & Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas with Theo Lawrence – Part of Essentia Health’s Concert Series play Bluestem Amphitheater in Moorhead, MN on June 16. Local presale begins Wednesday, December 10 at 10AM until Thursday, December 11 at 10PM using code BLUESTEM26 at → bit.ly/4awaORg. Tickets on sale Friday, December 12 at 10AM.
All Ages | Gates at 5:30PM | Show at 7PM
For nearly four decades, Alison Krauss & Union Station have upheld their legacy as one of the most influential and widely celebrated acts in bluegrass and roots music. Known for an immaculately crafted but endlessly surprising sound that transcends the boundaries of roots, country, rock & roll, and pop, Alison Krauss & Union Station released their highly anticipated new album, Arcadia, in 2025. This marked their first studio album since the 2011 masterpiece Paper Airplane—a critically lauded, multiple Grammy Award-winning LP that debuted at #1 on the Billboard Country, Bluegrass, and Folk Album charts. Over the years, Alison Krauss & Union Station have brought their phenomenal live show to sold-out performances at famed venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre, The Greek Theatre, Radio City Music Hall, and London’s Royal Festival Hall, in addition to supporting Paul Simon in Hyde Park for his 2012 Graceland reunion. They now continue the celebration of their new music with the Arcadia 2026 Tour.
The players – Alison Krauss (fiddle, lead vocal), Jerry Douglas (Dobro, lap steel, vocals), Ron Block (banjo, guitar, vocals), Barry Bales (bass, vocals), and highly acclaimed and celebrated tenor vocalist Russell Moore (guitar, mandolin, lead vocal) – are five distinct personalities, each of whom enjoys a flourishing solo career. But when they come together, they transform into a peerless group of musicians who share a singular focus.
