My Interests

Music, Art, Food and Love - The four horsemen of the good life.

I'd like to meet:

Fans and friends of the festival, music lovers from around the world!

Music:

See our 2008 lineup here!

Movies:

Yep, they made one. It's called GrassRoots Stages and we were mighty proud to be considered a worthy subject for such worthy filmmakers: Haw River Films Website

Television:

Getting lost in a Hollywood dream? Not our style. We'd rather be two-stepping.

Books:

We wholeheartedly encourage the reading of lots of books. Which books? That's up to you.

Heroes:

"We have our own heroes, they're dancing in the living room..." - Jeb Puryear
