If you’re anywhere near the NYC metro area you shouldn’t miss this year’s bluegrass festival at Staten Island’s Historic Richmond Town. It’s great music in a setting that’s sort of a mini Colonial Williamsburg…and this year it’s FREE! Jesse McReynolds, Dan Paisley, Ronnie Reno, and Straight Drive are the acts that will perform Saturday, August 11th, starting at noon. Here are the details:
