Murfreesboro, Tennessee is gearing up for an exciting venture as we introduce a brand new folk and bluegrass festival to the music community. The inaugural Gallagher Fest will be on Saturday, May 4th. This event is not just about music; it’s a celebration of coming together, reconnecting with our roots, and bringing back a roots music festival. Given our town's rich history of hosting music festivals and the decision to reintroduce this event in the heart of downtown Murfreesboro, it feels like a harmonious return to form.In the spirit of music and community, the street festival is open to the public. We will have four instrument contests: fiddle, mandolin, banjo, and flatpicking guitar. The contests will offer cash awards for the fiddle and mandolin contests. Gold Tone will be providing their new 24 fret Mastertone banjo, the OB-3EF, as the prize for the Banjo Contest. Gallagher Guitar Co. will be providing a Gallagher G-50 as the prize guitar for the Flatpicking Contest.
During the day, various featured artists will take the stage including Jim Hurst, Chris Jones and Paolo Ercoli, Scott Heuston and Erica Flom, Asher Cataldo and Bryce Reeg, Kristen Ford, David DeVaul and Jesse Black. Uncle Shuffelo & His Haint Hollow Hootenanny will close the street festival. An evening concert is also planned with Laura Orshaw and Josh Rinkel opening for The Dan Tyminski Band.
