Gotta admit, growing up in Racine, Wisconsin, bluegrass was never on my radar. In fact, I recall making fun of Southern yokels was about the only prejudice against any people I ever witnessed from my parents. And it wasn’t frequent or particularly vile – just a gentle joshing in Hee-Haw style, yuck-a-doo, yuck-a-doo. It was more the music that they looked down upon as some sort of hillbilly hymnal of a defeated culture’s wistful cry. They probably never heard Ralph Stanley. Or Roy Acuff. Or Gillian Welch, for that matter, because she didn’t come around until more recent times. They’d have thought – if given a moment to ponder – who are these people and why does their sound bring out emotions we don’t typically recognize (publicly) in the middle class white North? My folks certainly never conjured up the notion of a J.D. Vance. And I’m glad they were spared the misery. Could music bring the warring tribes together some how? The annual Hardly, Strictly Bluegrass festival in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, is attended by several hundred thousand appreciative people over the course of three days, and they all face for your answer. - J.H.
