Second Annual Music Fest featuring Blues, Bluegrass and Old-Time Music
for the revitalization of downtown Brunswick
ON SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 2011
Brunswick extends a warm welcome to music lovers everywhere to gather and enjoy the best of original and traditional blues, bluegrass and old-time mountain music. We wish to celebrate what these music genres and Brunswick have in common: their heartfelt and enduring connection to the railroad.
Brunswick experienced its golden years during the railroad boom. It is the construction of the railroad into the Appalachian Mountains that brought about the birth of bluegrass with the blending of the Scottish music heritage, African American banjo playing and Irish fiddle tunes. Conversely, the railroad brought old-time mountain music, southern blues and bluegrass to the east where, to this day, the music continues to delight listeners and influence young artists to write and play.
While you’re here, please enjoy historic downtown Brunswick and its picturesque surroundings along the Potomac River, the C&O Canal towpath, the Appalachian Trail and the Shenandoah River.
Thank you. We’ll see you at the concert!
