Much like its larger sister festival, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Planet Bluegrass’s RockyGrass is a homecoming for Festivarians far and wide. Not only do families and friends return year after year to dip their toes in the Saint Vrain River and enjoy the finest bluegrass and bluegrass-adjacent music the world has to offer, but world-class musicians also count the days until their return to the Planet Bluegrass Ranch to catch up and collaborate with friends on the legendary Colorado front range stage.

Today, the Momentary adds rising star Jaime Wyatt, breakout country music star Waylon Wyatt, 2X GRAMMY nominee Cha Wa, and critically acclaimed crossover band Mireya Ramos and the Poor Choices, to the lineup for FreshGrass | Bentonville 2025, a two-day, all-ages festival with the best in American and global roots music and folk traditions taking place on Friday, May 16th, and Saturday, May 17th.

The California Bluegrass Association will celebrate its 50th annual Father’s Day Bluegrass Festival with a special 50th-anniversary lineup featuring headliners the Travelin’ McCourys, the Gibson Brothers and AJ Lee & Blue Summit, who top a 32-act roster packed with established and emerging talents coming together June 12-15 at the Nevada County Fairgrounds in Grass Valley, Calif.

The Fox Theatre is thrilled to welcome the dynamic and award-winning roots ensemble, AJ Lee & Blue Summit, for a highly anticipated performance on Friday, April 11, 2025. Joined by Silas Herman & The Tone Unit, this evening promises to showcase the vibrant, soulful energy of a band quickly rising on the national bluegrass and Americana music scene.

This year's Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival (“HSBG”) in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park was—as usual, and as expected—a joyous and magical celebration for young and old, family and friends, musicians and music fans.

“It was like one of those late at night things,” says AJ Lee, mandolinist, singer, and namesake of burgeoning band AJ Lee & Blue Summit of the group’s origin.

There are few music festivals with the legacy of the High Sierra Music Festival (HSMF). After more than thirty years, HSMF has truly become far more than the sum of its parts. Sure, there's a ton of world-class music on several stages, parades, activities for kids, crafts and vendors, killer food, and all that. And of course, there's the camping scene, a hippie town that springs up almost overnight on the Plumas County Fairgrounds for the four-day festival around the Fourth of July each year.

AJ Lee & Blue Summit’s latest single “I Can’t Find You At All” is quite the family affair for Blue Summit guitarist Sullivan Tuttle. His sister, GRAMMY Award-winning guitarist and singer Molly Tuttle, joins Lee on vocals for a heartbreaking performance of the song written by none other than Sullivan and Molly’s father, Jack Tuttle.

What began as a simple lament for a long lost lover, AJ Lee & Blue Summit’s cover of Harlan Howard’s tune “He Called Me Baby” highlights the unmatchable chemistry between the members of one of the fastest rising groups in the worlds of Americana and Bluegrass. The Northern California-based quartet—Lee (mandolin), Sullivan Tuttle (guitar), Scott Gates (guitar), and Jan Purat (fiddle)—have dedicated their time to making music solely for the joy of making it, and the results are as pure as the process itself.

The High Sierra Music Festival, one of California's longest-running annual music festivals, is celebrating its 32nd year on July 4-7, 2024, in the golden Sierra hills of Quincy. Headliners this year include Ziggy Marley, Primus, and Greensky Bluegrass. They will be joined by a wide variety of bluegrass, jam, Americana, funk, folk, and worldbeat acts on multiple stages at the Plumas County Fairgrounds.
