Passim announced the lineup for the 13th Annual Down Home Up Here Bluegrass and Old Time Festival on Patriot's Day Weekend, April 19 to 21.
Down Home Up Here will showcase over a dozen Bluegrass and Old Time acts from greater Boston and around the country, including The Talking Hearts from Boston, Lucy Nelligan from California, and Noah G. Fowler from Tennessee. Guests will also have a chance to take part in workshops and join in on the fun in a Monday jam session with artists.
Saturday's lineup includes performances from New England acts Evan Murphy, Greg Liszt, The Talking Hearts, Chris Sartori, Dumpster Debbie, Hound & Handler, and west-coast musician Lucy Nelligan.
Sunday's lineup includes artists Seselia, Johanna Wacker, Maxfield & Friends & Enemies, Noah G. Fowler, and All She Wrote. The day will also have a performance by students from Berklee College of Music's 21st Century String Band class, who explore the growing trend of blending traditional string instruments with innovative, nontraditional sounds like rock, jazz, soul, and beyond.
On Monday at 7 pm, musicians Trevin Nelson and Micah John & Lillian Chase will host bluegrass and old-time jam. Admission is free, and all are welcome to join the jam.
As part of the festival, the Passim School of Music will host workshops including How to Construct KIller Solos for 3-finger Banjo with Trevin Nelson and Old-Time Fiddle Bowing Basics with Lucy Nelligan on Saturday and Getting Started on the Dobro with Lloyd Thayer and Beginning Clawhammer Banjo with Johanna Wacker on Sunday.
