A pair of RockyGrass regulars featured on the lineup described the festival in their own words, stating:

“RockyGrass is near and dear to all of our hearts. I attended my first academy and festival way back in 2002 when I was just 11 years old. It blew my mind and set the bar for what a festival should be like. It’s also where I met Aoife (O’Donovan) for the first time and got to fangirl over Crooked Still and Nickel Creek. Where else can you wade in the river while listening to the best live music you’ve ever heard? The proximity of the campground to the festival makes it uniquely homey, and there is always an easy flow between artists and festival goers. It really feels like a big homecoming, and we look forward to it anytime we get to return!” – Sarah Jarosz

“RockyGrass is as near to perfect as any festival I’ve attended. I have so many memories: the time when Sam Bush somehow wasn’t there, and I got to play mandolin on a whole Doc Watson set, jamming at the Leslie’s campground, the Night of the Living Red in 2016… There was one early rainy year, mud everywhere, when a guy walked by a 2 AM jam wearing white socks and flip flops. Mike Bub said, ‘That guy’s an optimist!’” – Tim O’Brien

Limited tickets and camping passes remain.
