Spring is the perfect time for travel! In this April issue, the Bluegrass Standard shares some of America’s most scenic places filled with bluegrass music, like Branson, Missouri, and Boulder, Colorado, where Beyond the Mountain Brewery offers craft brews and bluegrass! We also highlight Colorado’s grass bands, Leftover Salmon and Jake Leg, and the DC Bluegrass Union in Washington, DC, an all-volunteer non-profit organization ensuring that the nation’s capital city reverberates with more than politics. Our feature on JackTown Ramblers explains how the band’s swing, gypsy jazz, and “David Grisman kind of stuff” set them apart musically. Finally, C J. Lewandowski takes readers aboard the Bobby Osborne bus to learn about his and Bobby’s new album project. So grab a pepperoni roll, one of our featured Appalachian treats, and “read” across the nation with The Bluegrass Standard.
