FreshGrass Bluegrass Festival 2015

  The FreshGrass Bluegrass Festival at MASS MoCA takes place this Friday through Sunday – September 18th-20th.

FreshGrass is rich in both traditional and cutting-edge bluegrass, presented in a wide array of venues. An opportunity for enthusiasts to both appreciate and participate, FreshGrass is a family-friendly festival, brimming with bright talent on four stages, and also in MASS MoCA’s galleries, brick-lined courtyards, and grassy field.

This year’s festival boasts performances by Dwight Yoakam, Punch Brothers, The Del McCoury Band and many (many) others; workshops, the 2015 FreshGrass Award Contest, Freshscores (more on that later), The Man in Grass: A FreshGrass Tribute to Johnny Cash – food, art, and luthiery.

Sue Killam, MASS MoCA’s Managing Director of Performing Arts and Jodi Joseph, Director of Communications join us.

Joe talks to people on the radio for a living. In addition to countless impressive human "gets" - he has talked to a lot of Muppets. Joe grew up in Philadelphia, has been on the area airwaves for more than 25 years and currently lives in Washington County, NY with his wife, Kelly, and their dog, Brady. And yes, he reads every single book.
