Philly Bluegrass’ mission is to promote the creation, performance, and appreciation of bluegrass and roots music in Philadelphia and its surrounding regions.

Philly Bluegrass strives to spread a love for bluegrass music among both new and longstanding fans of the genre by promoting live performances by high-quality local, regional, and national performers. We also work to connect local musicians to jams, performance opportunities, and one another.

Founded in 2015, Philly Bluegrass has spent a decade building community around this music. Bands have formed among musicians who found each other through our calendar. Players new to Philadelphia have discovered a thriving scene they didn’t know existed. Fans across the region rely on us to know what’s happening every week.

Philly Bluegrass is a project of CultureTrust Greater Philadelphia, which provides fiduciary oversight via its board of trustees.
