Bluegrass has always been a love of ours, but we've been unable to get to any good festivals or shows this year-- that is, until last night! We attended the 9th annual Northland Ballroom Bluegrass Festival. Here's a peak at what we heard.
That clip is Art Stevenson and High Water, and they're playing a bluegrass favorite- "Orange Blossom Special" Unfortunately, some moron started his motorcycle about halfway through, so you will hear some non-bluegrass noises. Lorie and Melanie are HUGE High Water fans. Stephanie's voice is beautiful. This next clip doesn't do her singing justice, but here's a preview of her--
We only were able to hear the grass from about 8pm until Midnight. They are holding the second day of the festival today, but Lorie is working. We'll make sure to ask off of work next year! The good news is that in three weeks, we are going to the East Troy Bluegrass Festival. I'm not sure who is playing there, but I'm sure the grass will be blue.
