Folsom-based trio celebrates The Carter Family’s musical legacy Thursday night at Zittel Family Amphitheater
The heart of Historic Folsom will echo with the timeless harmonies of early American country music this Thursday, July 3, as The Wildwood Roses take the stage for the next installment of the 2025 Summer Twilight Concert Series. The free outdoor show begins at 7:30 p.m. at the Zittel Family Amphitheater in Historic Folsom Plaza.
Based right here in Folsom, The Wildwood Roses are a celebrated vocal trio known for their faithful and spirited tributes to The Carter Family and other trailblazing women in country music history. Formed in 2015, the California-based group has cultivated a devoted following with their rich three-part harmonies and heartfelt performances that transport listeners to the roots of folk and country.
Dedicated to honoring the legacy of The Carter Sisters and other pioneers of Americana music, The Wildwood Roses deliver an authentic sound that blends tradition with charm. Their performances feature songs steeped in storytelling and heritage, presented with a reverence for the women who helped shape the early soundscape of American country music.
Thursday night’s performance is part of the Folsom Historic District Association’s Summer Twilight Concert Series, a weekly tradition that continues every Thursday evening through August 28. Attendees are encouraged to bring low back lawn chairs and relax on the grassy amphitheater space while enjoying the music under the open sky. Beer and wine will be available for purchase on site.
The 13-week concert series showcases a wide range of genres and regional talent, having already welcomed acts like Mumbo Gumbo, Adam Aldama & The Aces, Jessica Malone, and The Golden Cadillacs. Following The Wildwood Roses, the series continues with Dirty Cello on July 10, AKAlive Band on July 17, Apple Z on July 24, and Wayside on July 31.
