WHAT THEY’RE SAYING:
Val B., via Facebook
“Fantastic event, and incredible performances! Thank you!”
Tim H., via Facebook
“Newgrass was a tremendous success. It is hard to believe it was your first effort at running this festival… Congrats on selling it out. Breakfast was brilliant - kicking off the day with pancakes, sausage, coffee and live tunes was a great start. Then there was the talent line up... All-in-all, I saw 5 bands during the course of the day. Every one of them was worth the price of admission alone…”
