The San Francisco Bluegrass & Old Time Festival is back after a four-year hiatus! Shows will happen all over San Francisco on Wednesday-Sunday, October 11-15, 2017.
The SFBOT celebrates the many bluegrass artists in San Francisco and will follow the big, but not mostly bluegrass, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival that will be held in Golden Gate Park October 6-8. This is your chance to enjoy plenty of real bluegrass bluegrass!
The California Tallboys and Evie Laden will play the second night of the festival on Thursday, October 12 at The Lost Church.
The original SFBOT festival (with a 14-year run starting in 2000) was organized by a quasi-independent committee of the Northern California Bluegrass Society. The revival is a project of several area bluegrass organizations including the California Bluegrass Association, and is welcomed by the Northern California Bluegrass Society.
