SUMMARY:The Sam Bush Band at the Shedd Institute
DESCRIPTION:Sam Bush\, a pioneering force in progressive bluegrass\, has spent over five decades redefining the genre with his signature mandolin style and genre-blending approach. Born in Bowling Green\, Kentucky\, he was immersed in music from an early age\, influenced by his father’s fiddle playing and inspired by artists like Bill Monroe and the Osborne Brothers. By his teens\, Bush had already won a three national championships in the junior division of the National Oldtime Fiddler’s Contest and recorded his first album\, Poor Richard’s Almanac.\n\nIn 1966\, at just 18\, he turned down an offer to join country star Roy Acuff’s band\, choosing instead to follow a more experimental path. He joined the Bluegrass Alliance in 1969\, where he first played with future collaborators. The following year\, Bush and his bandmates formed New Grass Revival\, igniting a revolution in bluegrass by incorporating elements of rock\, jazz\, reggae\, and improvisation. Despite initial resistance from traditionalists\, the band gained a devoted following\, toured with Leon Russell\, and became a staple of the festival circuit. Bush’s innovative mandolin technique and boundary-pushing compositions helped solidify New Grass Revival’s legacy through the 1970s and 1980s.\n\nBush moved on from the band in 1989 after two decades\, spending the next several years collaborating with Emmylou Harris’ Nash Ramblers and later Lyle Lovett. He earned multiple International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) Mandolin Player of the Year awards and reconnected with Béla Fleck to tour with the Flecktones. In 1995\, he embarked on a solo career\, releasing acclaimed albums such as Glamour & Grits (1996) and Laps in Seven(2006)\, showcasing his signature mix of bluegrass\, jam-band energy\, and instrumental mastery.\n\nWe first got Sam Bush on stage here in Eugene back in 1998 at our first Twin Rivers Folklife Festival in 1998. Then again a couple of years ago…like 23 years later when he joined Béla Fleck on his My Bluegrass Heart stop at The Shedd in 2021. Great to have him out.

SUMMARY:Fadin' By Nine and Dogwood June at Threshold Brewing
DESCRIPTION:Dogwood June is a Portland based bluegrass band with a warm\, easygoing energy that started the way all good things do in bluegrass: with a group of friends\, a few stringed instruments\, and a shared love for picking tunes on back porches and in living rooms. \nFadin’ by 9 is a collection of many musical streams\, converging into the great river of bluegrass. As long as there’s a driving beat\, interesting lyrics\, places to harmonize and show off tasty licks\, we’ll give it a try. We’ve been together going on 18 years now\, evolving as we go. We pull from our various musical histories\, from traditional bluegrass to more contemporary tunes that\, in Seth’s words\, “were really bluegrass tunes from the beginning\, but never knew it until we got to them.” Come find out what we mean at an upcoming show.

SUMMARY:The Rosa Lees at Dunbar Farms
DESCRIPTION:The Rosa Lees hail from the hills of sunny Southern Oregon and trace a distinct line between their music and the vision of female bluegrass pioneers such as Hazel Dickens\, Alice Gerrard\, Rose Maddox\, and beyond. \nAt the forefront of their music lies an emphasis on closely blended harmonies\, hard-charging rhythms\, and lyrically potent songs. Their repertoire mingles elements of traditional bluegrass with traces of old-time fiddle and banjo tunes\, classic country\, old-world Celtic music\, and gospel. They prioritize songs with meaning and a strong turn of phrase\, working to fuse all these ingredients into the original songs that punctuate their sets. \nAudiences consistently rave about the distinct blend of their vocal harmonies and instrumental acuity\, not to mention their playful on-stage demeanor. The Rosa Lees are Rachel Buklad on banjo\, Jessie Monter on fiddle\, Holly Hurley on bass\, and Bekkah McAlvage on guitar.
