It’s the biggest show in bluegrass! For five days, downtown Raleigh, NC is host to non-stop music as the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) presents World of Bluegrass, its annual convention/trade show/festival.
This year Bluegrass Country brought our Showcase of Bands back to the Raleigh Convention Center. Twenty of the hottest acts in bluegrass, representing the full range from traditional to cutting-edge contemporary performers, played to appreciative audiences on Wednesday and Thursday, September 27 & 28.
The bands performed live on our stage at the convention center and were recorded for broadcast on Bluegrass Country Radio and streaming on bluegrasscountry.org. Watch the site for the broadcast schedule.
