See you in September!<\/a><\/h1>\n

With vaccines rolling out and many experts predicting a return to live music events in the fall, we cannot wait to welcome our bluegrass family back to MASS MoCA for FreshGrass North Adams 2021 on September 24-26.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re putting together a stellar lineup (more info soon!) and making sure all suggested safety protocols are followed (more info below). We can\u2019t think of a better way to celebrate than to gather together for a special 10th anniversary festival in September. Join us for a family-friendly weekend brimming with the brightest talent in bluegrass and roots. Grab your tickets, then RSVP on Facebook<\/a><\/u> to let your friends know where you’ll be!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Health + Safety<\/a><\/h1>\n

These last few days, I have taken the time to do some in depth looks into a lot of venues and festivals, wondering which ones will actually transpire in 2021. This time of year while running my website, I am linking band names into current year’s lineups.  I’m usually contacting over 275 festival directors for information and comments.<\/p>\n

I just recently published a good article on what The Caverns<\/a> in Pelham Tennessee is doing to meet standards, so they can have live music again. All over America, venues like Billy Bob’s<\/a> in Texas are maintaining their operating status by having live music while meeting protocols.<\/p>\n

I cover a vast array of genres  of music, and festivals, and I try my best to report to all of you on every one of the festivals. I study so many different festivals all over America, that are either still going on or cancelling.<\/p>\n

Now, not only does Fresh Grass hold two different festivals across America it also publishes No Depression magazine, offers college grants and more! For many years the quarterly music publication of No Depression has been a top “go-to” route for new music and new bands.<\/p>\n
