A Sweet Success: The GOF Returns After A Two-Year Covid Hiatus — Thanks For Your Support!

Thanks to the loyal support of Northern California Bluegrass Society Members and other Northern California bluegrass fans and bands, the Good Old Fashioned Bluegrass Festival came back to life after a two-year Covid-forced hiatus. It was a sweet success! We all had a great time!

The NCBS will stage the 29th festival August 10-13, 2023. We hope you will plan to join us. Our NCBS volunteers will be there to greet you! Our friends in the San Benito County Historical Society will have everything ready for the festival!

Same great music. Same great friends. Nothing like it in the world!

Thanks for your support!
