Festival Schedule

We set-up our store booth at a few festivals around the U.S. each year.

At these events we show a cross-section of our high quality instruments and accessories.
If you plan to attend any of these events, please stop by and say hello.


Here is a list of shows we will be attending in 2008. This list is currently being updated so check back often...
WinterGrass Bluegrass Festival
Tacoma, WA - February
This is always our biggest and best festival. We bring a choice selection from our store to this one! It looks like a great lineup of artists again this year.
This year we'll have Will Williams, banjo maker from Idaho, along with Jaroslav Prucha from Prague, at our booth. Also the celebrated banjoist and multi-instrumentalist, Peter Schwimmer, will be helping us.
June 14th-21st
This is one of the official "Grand Champion" open fiddle contests, and is centered around the Texas Swing style fiddling... But there are also plenty of other styles being played by some of the finest acoustic players around: Urban Swing and 30's Jazz, Oldtime Appalachian style playing, hardcore Bluegrass, Folk, Country, etc. This is one of those festivals where you wake up and start picking until you fall over from exhaustion, then wake up and do it again!  Each year the regulars remember it as the "Third FULL week in June".
We aren't sure if we'll have a booth at the festival in 2008, but there'll be several store personnel attending the festival - look for us camping around the Museum a short walk up from the schoolhouse where the fiddle contest is staged.
Bitterroot Valley Bluegrass Festival
Sadly this Festival will not be happening this year.
 
Darrington Bluegrass Festival
Darrington, Washington - July 18th, 19th & 20th
We've been regulars at Darrington for about 10 years now. This is the longest festival in the NorthWest, running steadily now for about 30 years. Lots of good times here, lots of shady camping, great cold water swimming, and very high muscianship in the local pickers!  There are no showers - you'll be bathing in the river.
