Get ready to tap your toes! In this episode, Jeff Slakey talks with festival organizer Greg Linder about the 20th anniversary of Bluegrass From The Forest, happening this weekend in Shelton, WA. What started as a local idea in a parking lot has grown into one of the Pacific Northwest’s premiere bluegrass events, attracting bands from Nashville to Oregon—and fans from across the U.S.
They talk about the family-friendly camping scene, instrument workshops, the legendary Midnight Hot Dogs, and how artists like Zach Top got their start right here in Mason County. With acts like Jim Hurst, Seth Mulder & Midnight Run, Never Come Down, and the Barkay Buckaroos, this year’s lineup blends national talent with deep local roots.
