This brand-new winter festival aims to crank up the heat this January in Edmonton. It’s all to take place inside the Edmonton Inn on Kingsway Ave, January 17-19, 2025. Featuring 8 international, national, and regional bands, RiverCity Bluegrass is aiming to claim a spot on the continent as the hottest January bluegrass ticket going. It will be wall to wall hot fiddlin’ pickin’ and singin.’ Canada’s own finest, the Slocan Ramblers out of Toronto and Nashville, jumped at the chance to perform. Fresh off touring this summer at the well-known Rocky Grass festival in Colorado, and recent appearances at the Grand Ole Opry and Station Inn in Nashville, this band is on the move. The line-up also headlines the wildly successful Kody Norris Show from east Tennessee; the crowd-pleasing Spinney Brothers from Canada’s east coast; and the high-energy Francophone-style bluegrass band of Veranda from Montreal. Bring your dancing shoes. On the regional side, the festival features the Myhre Brothers with no one other than the Grand Master fiddler, Alfie Myhre, along with son Byron and grandson Tanner. It will be one for the ages. Tickets at http://www.bluegrassnorth.com.
