Gone Tomorrow is ready to play!
Gone Tomorrow was at the San Diego Fair July 5, 2025
We played on the Avenue Stage for the San Diego Bluegrass Society's annual Bluegrass Day at the Fair.
SanDiegoBluegrass.orgThe 2025 North Park Music Fest was great fun!
Gone Tomorrow played from 2-3 pm at the Garden at Art Produce on University Ave in North Park. northparkmusicfest.org for next year's info.____________________
Sadly we have now lost two of our favorite musicians, Steve Dame who passed in the Fall of 2023, and Dale Desmuke who passed in the Fall of 2025. We miss them both!
The current band line up is Richard Burkett, Tom Dillon, Dwight Worden, and our newest members: banjoist Randy Hampton, and mandolinist Danny Aldrich.
No gigs at all in the lost year of 2020.
We played the Ramona Bluegrass Festival in 2019.
Occasionally you might see us play at the San Diego Bluegrass Society meetings (free!) at Duck Foot Brewing-Miramar in San Diego.
We enjoyed our Summergrass set in Vista, CA in 2016 and hope to play Summergrass again soon.It's unlikely that we'll work on a CD again soon. Steve wrote one called The Oak Grove that's really beautiful, yet chilling, but sadly Steve's gone now, but we might add some tracks to the recording. Richard has one about coal mining titled Forty Years of Pain, and a couple of new instrumentals.
Check out our Facebook photo page for photos of us at the Mammoth Bluegrass Festival over Labor Day weekend 2012 (we played Mammoth again in 2013), and other events.
San Diego's finest bluegrass band, Gone Tomorrow plays hard-driving bluegrass music. Based in San Diego, the band also plays a wide variety of Texas swing, old-time, and early country music. The name of the band says it all, and true-to-form there have been a number of personnel changes as musicians come and go. The latest incarnation of Gone Tomorrow includes some of San Diego's best veteran bluegrass performers. We're always having a great time when we're playing music for you. Gone Tomorrow looks forward to playing truly entertaining bluegrass music in unusual places.We hope you'll come by and see us soon at one of our frequent Southern California performances! Often you can catch us for free performing on the second Monday of the month at the SD Bluegrass Society meeting at Duck Foot Brewing-Miramar in San Diego. See the local San Diego bluegrass music links below for more great music.
