Acoustic Blue, a top-rated Bluegrass group hailing from the Berkshires, will bring us traditional Bluegrass and New England roots music, along with a bit of country and lots of great strumming and harmonies. This superb group, with a repertoire of well-known covers, as well as original compositions, has been spotlighted in venues up and down the east coast. They combine time-honored Bluegrass tradition with a contemporary lean.
