The festival starts on the 23rd with the open mic "Take the Stage!" hootenanny. There will also be open jam sessions, performance and songwriting workshops, and great food and drink throughout the event. "By popular demand, we added more two-day passes for 2025," said Co-producer Rachel Pearson. "As of November 1st those passes are almost sold out. However, single show tickets are still available."
"Our line-up of world-class performers includes Friday night's headliners, The Henhouse Prowlers, with Kristen Grainger & True North opening. Saturday afternoon will be fantastic with three bands: Whiskey Deaf Duet; Thunder & Rain, and Tony Furtado with Luke Price. Saturday night will open with returning favorite Crying Uncle Bluegrass Band and Della Mae closing out the festival."
