Sweet String Break Fest This Weekend
For those of you not heading west this weekend to the epic musical mecca that is the New Orleans Jazzfest (April 27- May 6), there's an intimate roots-bluegrass fest called String Break at the lovely Sertoma Youth Ranch outside Brooksville.
Have Gun Will Travel, Rani Arbo and Daisy Mayhem, The New 76ers, the Aaron O'Rourke Trio, the Packaway Handle Band, Blue Highway, Gatorbone Trio and more perform. Check out this link to hear the bands' music.
This is a family friendly fest with a nice vibe. The music is wonderful and the whole experience is so relaxing. The campground is lovely, everything is close by, so it is a good place to take kids. Kids 13 and under are free, and they have a bunch of activities for them.
It's $99 for the weekend, which includes three days of music (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) and two nights of primitive. You can also get a Friday-Saturday only ticket for $84. RV sites are extra. For more pricing info, click here.
Here is video of a lovely song from Bradenton's Have Gun Will Travel, who plays String Break on Saturday at 12:45 pm. Love this sweet band!
