Music in the Woods: Bluegrass in the Hood

The 7th Annual Music in the Woods happens Saturday, September 29th from 6 p.m. till 8:30 p.m. in the 2200 block of Greenup Street in Covington's Wallace Woods neighborhood.

Stop by and unwind with the music of the Northern Kentucky Bluegrass Band. Parking available in Wallace Woods or at the Covington Housing Authority lot at Madison and Sterrett. Some snacks and beverages will be available for sale and lawn chairs are recommended. The proceeds of Music in the Woods benefit local beautification efforts and the Covington Wallace Woods Neighborhood Association Scholarship fund. $5 for adults and kids are free.

The Commonwealth of Kentucky and Appalachia have a rich, rich tradition of bluegrass music. If you haven't given this music a chance yet, there's never been a better time. Attend a concert- they're usually held in small venues, bars or school auditoriums locally. You'll often find a world famous bluegrass star walking around talking to people and selling CDs before the show. You won't find that kind of down-home friendliness at a Creed concert! Or, visit the International Bluegrass Music Museum in Owensboro for exhibits and events that celebrate the history of bluegrass music in Kentucky.

And let us know if you go!
