Bluegrass Pride

On the Forward Roll today, check out a tune from our friends @georgefiddle and Uma Peters! George describes "Turtle Rock" as "a beautifully moody atmosphere, evocative of that moment of calm in a turbulent year." Read more and watch on our website: bluegrasspride.net/blogs/news/pre…

Proud of BGP Board Member, scholar, and musician Jake Blount (@forked_queer) for writing this important piece of criticism of music journalism — and the ways it can (and often does) propagate white supremacy. Essential reading!

It's the biggest week in #bluegrass! Here's where you can find us during @IntlBluegrass's World of Bluegrass in Raleigh this week. Don't miss our (vaxxed & masked) BYO-Brunch & Info Session and mini-showcase on Saturday, Oct. 2, IN PERSON! RSVP: fb.me/e/1khVh0Mdr

Don't forget! @arosefiddle premieres the #BluegrassPride-inspired composition "Embracing Roots" with Fog Holler and the Americana String Quartet on Sunday, September 19! Virtual and in-person tickets are available: oldfirstconcerts.org/performance/al…
