Grassy, Missouri - If Bluegrass Music is your style, then you will want to be aware of a great event held this coming weekend at Arrowhead Campground near Grassy Missouri. Bloom Hollow LCC has organized and produced a lineup of bands that will fill your needs. Zach Hedrick, SMT Writer
The music will begin Thursday evening with well over 15 bands on tap for your musical entertainment. The Yonder Mountain String Band will perform both Friday and Saturday night. Other bands such as The Del McCoury Band and Bluegrass Ball will also take the stage during the weekend.
Yonder Mountain String Band is a very popular bluegrass band that is well traveled. They have always played music by the own set of rules. Bending bluegrass, rock and countless other influences, Yonder has pioneered a sound of their own. With their traditional lineup of instruments, the band may look like a traditional bluegrass band at first glance but they’ve created their own music that transcends any genre.
