Dave Adkins & Mountain Soul (above) are just one of the new headline acts planned for this year’s NEPA Bluegrass Festival, slated for May 29 to June 1 in Tunkhannock. Another is Joe Mullins (below) & the Radio Ramblers.
The 18th annual NEPA Bluegrass Festival will be held Friday to Sunday, May 29 to June 1, at Lazy Brook Park in Tunkhannock, Wyoming County. Headliners include familiar names like The Kody Norris Show and Little Roy & Lizzy, as well as Ralph Stanley II & The Clinch Mountain Boys, Joe Mullins & the Radio Ramblers, and Dave Adkins & Mountain Soul.
Lazy Brook Park is a favored venue among both the musicians and their fans due to its relative flatness, paved streets, shade trees, flowering shrubs, art installations, and a restored, historic pedestrian bridge that connects the main park where the Traditional Stage is located to creek side of the park where the Progressive Stage is situated. Camping is free with the purchase of a weekend pass.
“It’s perfect for camping,” said Christa Stewart, who created NEPA Bluegrass with her musician husband Danny Stewart and personally welcomes new and returning guests back to the park at the entrance tent each year. “Danny and I look forward to seeing the music fans, who have truly become our second family, as much as we do bringing them a world-class festival experience in such a serene setting.”…
