From: Vinegrass Music Festival

The Vinegrass festival will feature four nationally touring bands on the main stage, and several regional musicians on the pavilion stage. The eclectic mix of music, steeped in the Americana & Bluegrass styles, will showcase innovative songwriting, musicians who have mastered their craft in fiddle, mandolin, guitar, and a joyous audience that appreciates original music!

Line-up
Yarn
Blake Christiana, founding member of Yarn, has the music in him. In fact, you could say that Blake is the music and the music is Blake; that’s how deeply he inhabits the songs he writes and plays. You can hear him struggling with his feelings, whether it’s on a skittering country shuffle or on a mid-tempo folk ballad or a straight-ahead rocker. His restless search for the chords and lyrics over the past 20 years has produced a plethora of memorable music, and since 2007 he’s led Yarn, a band that’s evolved from its earliest days as a bar band in New York City to an outstanding roots band that’s shared stages with Dwight Yoakam, Marty Stuart, Alison Krauss, and Leftover Salmon, among many others.

The Dirty Grass Players
The Dirty Grass Players are an energetic explosion of old-time pickin’, coloured with an inventive, newgrass hand, that is given lyrical life by their soaring vocal harmonies that exist on an ethereal plain. They live at the crossroads between the traditional, which is the backbone of what they do, and the progressive with their innovative forward-thinking approach. The Dirty Grass Players, with their steady, workman-like precision and loose adventurous spirit are a band that can both confound Bill Monroe and cause him to smile uncontrollably. Their music is progressive, traditional, experimental, imaginative, and at its core, Dirty.

The Wolff Sisters
The Wolff Sisters is fronted by three sisters — Rebecca on acoustic guitar, Kat on the keys, Rachael on electric guitar, and all three on lead vocals and harmonies. Raised on Bob Dylan, The Band, and Little Feat, the sisters crafted their sound around a honky tonk piano in the living room of their childhood home. With a talented cast of rotating drummers and bass players, The Wolff Sisters are a rag tag group of hardworking individuals that bring a big sound and timeless songs. Their music is honest and genre defying, but still rooted in traditional rock and Americana storytelling. New England Music Award winner for Americana Artist of the Year 2021 and Boston Music Award winner for Americana Artist of the Year 2020, the band’s electrifying live performance and unique sound continues to gain momentum and recognition from their hometown of Boston and beyond. The band is on tour promoting their fourth studio album ‘Dark River.’

Monica Rizzio
Vinegrass founder and Cape Cod’s Washashore Cowgirl will kick off the festival with her band the Round-Ups. No stranger to the local music scene, Rizzio is an award winning songwriter and brings her alt-country original music inspired by her Texas up-bringing and years spent in Nashville to the shores she now calls home. Rizzio is a versatile musician, touring across the country on her own, she also plays fiddle and guitar with Tom Rush, and owns and teaches at Washashore Music in Orleans.
