Thank you so much for supporting our fundraiser. The Festival is going to happen! We have four weeks to go but we are continuing to raise money via this site and at our other Bluegrass events. Events like busking in Hexham market place on 8th July. Thank you the North of Tyne Combined Authority for giving us 60% of our target and everyone at Spacehive, the crowd funding platform, for their help. Free events....Bluegrass chats in Hexham library at 7.30 tonight, Oh brother Where art thou at The Forum Cinema on 4th July and of course, the Festival weekend itself (28 - 30th). See you there. More updates soon.

Hi, We have been busy spreading the word and warming everyone up for a great festival... The Hexham bluegrass band busked at Hexham Market in May and the Often Herd, one of the headline bands at the Festival, gave a concert at Core Music on 4th June. The 28th June sees the first Bluegrass Library Chat between two seasoned Bluegrass players who will be talking and playing at 7.30. and finally, (for this posting), there is a showing of our favourite Bluegrass film, "Oh Brother, Where art Thou"? on Tuesday 4th July at The Forum Cinema at 7.00 with live bluegrass music in the cafe at 6.15. See you there. Keep spreading the word. Thank you
