From the Boston Bluegrass Union website:
2015 Joe Val Update: Sheraton hotel rooms sold out within 1-2 minutes. However, there are rooms available at our overflow hotels only a few minutes away. Weekend tickets are now on sale.
All the information you need is at the BBU website; you can buy tickets from the website, too; just click on the link above. It’s all happening at the Sheraton Framingham on Presidents’ Day Weekend, February 13, 14, 15 2015.
The band schedule is not final yet, but so far. . .
The Del McCoury Band
Rhonda Vincent
Seldom Scene
Frank Solivan and Dirty Kitchen
Laurie Lewis and the Right Hands
The Kathy Kallick Band
Laurie Lewis and Kathy Kallick sing songs of Vern and Ray
The Roland White Band
Town Mountain
Bluegrass Gospel Project
Bob Amos and Catamount Crossing
and more to come!
Those band names should work as links to the photos and bios on the BBU website (if not, just go there). You’ll hear music from all those bands on Hillbilly at Harvard, of course—though I haven’t seen the Vern and Ray tribute album from Laurie and Kathy yet, nor anything from Bob Amos (hint! hint!).
I think Del McCoury is going to close out the Festival on Sunday afternoon, which is going to keep everyone in their seats for sure. More as we get updates. /CL
