Voting for Battle of the Banjos Continues! Check out Redbud Bluegrass live from Sierra Nevada!

To maintain the integrity of the contest, all voting moving forward will take place through the new voting form. We appreciate everyone's enthusiasm and support for these talented musicians and want to make sure the process is as fair and transparent as possible.

(We have documented all previous votes, and those will impact the final tally)

This Saturday, June 6th, we're hosting the very first Battle of the Banjos live finale at Sierra Nevada in Mills River, NC and we want you there.

Three finalists. One stage. All of them fighting for a spot on the Earl Scruggs Music Festival stage this September. These are up-and-coming artists that are keeping this music alive and carrying it somewhere new. Come hear them do it live, then cast your vote for who you want on that ESMF stage.

The FREE event runs from 2 to 5 PM. Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. is a pretty good place to spend a Saturday afternoon, and we think the music just might blow the roof off. This is what it's all about, y'all. Come be part of it.
