Hope everyone had as good a time at the 10th annual Swampngrass as we did!
It makes us proud to know that so many great people have stuck around and supported the event for so long. And with the new additions to the family, like baby Murphy, hopefully we’ll all be able to keep going for a very long time.
Of course we couldn't do anything without the great musicians that come in every year!
Special thanks to Art Stephenson & High-water for letting us join in their fun, Walter Mouton and the Scott playboy's for bringing that great Cajun sound up from the Bayou. The Mill Town Ramblers for kickin things off in style, and of course Sloppy Joe, not only for incorporating us into a song but for staying up all night and jamming!
We'll see you all at the summer festivals.

Here we go!
The time has finally come! Who would have thought that what started as 50 people in a bar with no heat would have turned into the spectacle that is Swamp N Grass!

We're bringing back Walter Mouton and the Scott Playboy's all the way from Louisiana along with traditional favorites, Art Stevenson & Highwater, Sloppy Joe, and with newcomers the Mill-town Ramblers it promises to be a 10th Anniversary like no other!
Get your tickets and reservations taken care of early, can't wait to see everyone there, we're going 3 big days Thursday - Saturday, so come early, stay late, and have a great time!

Hello Again,
What a great time we had again this year at Swamp n Grass. We'd like to especially thank everyone that got there on Thursday to kick off the event a day early! I'm sure that will now become a standard practice!
It was great seeing our first true all star Jam on Saturday night when Art Stevenson took the stage with James King!!! Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. With any luck we'll see more of this sort of thing.
Start planning now for next years giant 10th Anniversary bash. It promises to be the best Swamp n Grass yet! And please, take a minute to stop by Brian's website and say Hi!
Check back often for updates, and let us know what you'd like to see on our message board!

Hey Now! Hope everyone had a great Swamp N Grass '99. Once again we broke records for attendance and alcohol consumed! It was great to see so many people at the late night jams which, incidentally, lasted until 6 a.m.! Special thanks to Bill Jorgeson for heading up the Saturday afternoon Bloody Mary Jam, and the Crazy Canuck's for staying up all night like the Bluegrass Champs they are.
Don't forget to thank Brain and J.B. when you see them, for throwing such a great party, and go see Bay Lakes Bluegrass Band, Art Stevenson, and The Bone Tones, and tell them how much you enjoyed them at Swamp N Grass '99!
