The 32nd Annual Strawberry Park Bluegrass Festival on May 28-31 will be adding a folk music and dance component. In 2006 and 2007, we hosted a fall folk festival, which did not grow in the same manner as the Bluegrass and C/Z events. While the event was not renewed, we have invited many of our favorite folk performers to join us for our BG Fest. Saturday (May 30) will feature folk music and dancing in the upper level of the Rec Center. The exact times are still being finalized, but here is what it will probably look like...
11:45AM Dance Instruction
12:30PM Girl Howdy
2:00PM The Kennedys
3:15PM Clogging Dance Demo
4:30PM Red Molly
6:15PM Tracy Grammer
8:00PM Dance Instruction--2 step/swing
9:00PM Girl Howdy
Of course, this is in addition to the Bluegrass Main Stage performances. As we have already highlighted "Red Molly", today's featured artist will be Tracy Grammer http://www.tracygrammer.com/ She has appeared at our Folk Festival in the past, and we are pleased to have her return to Strawberry Park. Best known for her "Flower of Avalon" album, Tracy often tours with Jim Henry, and will be appearing from Florida to Oregon over the next few months.
