ROMP - International Bluegrass Music Museum, June 28-30
Long-time supporters of the International Bluegrass Music Museum, we're helping get the word out about an all-star lineup including Vince Gill, Old Crow Medicine Show, Punch Brothers and Carolina Chocolate Drops at this year's annual ROMP festival June 28-30, 2012 in Owensboro.
Just our opinion but we think she's a folk music legend unfolding before our very eyes. It's the one year anniversary of the great Sarah Jarosz recording Follow Me Down which we think should be a part of every music library.
Rest in peace. A founding member of The Dillards bluegrass band, Doug Dillard, has passed away at age 75.
New music from Bobby Osborne and The Rocky Top X-Press: New Bluegrass & Old Heartaches.
A most difficult mandolin recording to find: , yet there it is.
2013-2015 IBMA World of Bluegrass annual convention has announced they're leaving Nashville and heading to Raleigh, North Carolina.
We love the vibe of a but this one is priced just a tad high.
One of the longest running and most popular music camps (and a most desirable location) in the country, The Swannanoa Gathering, has announced their first Mando & Banjo Week, August 5-11 with a world class line-up.
