MOUNTAIN SONG MUSIC FESTIVAL

About Me

Header Banner Made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own! !..
Mountain Song Festival was created to bring the best in acoustic music including bluegrass, old time, folk and traditional mountain music, as well as the many branches that stem from it, to our community and to further encourage music in our everyday lives. Mountain Song strives to promote cultural tourism and environmental awareness for a positive economic impact on our community while utilizing the Brevard Music Center in Brevard, NC, as a world class venue.
MOUNTAIN SONG FESTIVAL IS GREEN! Environmental Responsibility has never been a trend for Mountain Song Festival. We have been a community leader and an example for other events in reducing waste with an extensive recycling effort thanks to dedicated community volunteers and the cooperation of our food vendors who serve on compostable ware so that everything can be recycled or composted. We captured over 80% of total waste last year and this year we are aiming for 100%.This will take the cooperation of all of us in this effort. We encourage all in attendance at the festival to participate in our efforts by following our policies and if you have to bring something (we have great food and drink at Mountain Song) please recycle it. We have stations set up conveniently around the venue with multiple receptacles for every type of recyclable or food waste.
..
The 2009 line up will include The David Grisman Quintet, The Steep Canyon Rangers, Sceldom Scene, Shannon Whitworth, and more
The main stage for Mountain Song Festival is the beautiful Whittington-Pfohl Auditorium. This covered, open-air auditorium protects the listener from the rain so if there is bad weather the show will be unaffected and you will be dry.
We will be selling 1800 seats in the auditorium. Get your tickets early to guarantee a seat in the auditorium.
