High Sierra Music Festival proudly returns to the picturesque Plumas County Fairgrounds in Quincy, California, for its 33rd annual celebration, taking place July 3–6, 2025.

Liam St. John, the blues/rock heavy hitter out of Nashville, today released his newest single, “Greyhound Bus Blues,” featuring GRAMMY Award winning bluegrass artist Molly Tuttle. An acoustic video of the song with both Liam and Molly also premiered today on Bluegrass Situation. While the song initially strikes as a high energy, toe-tapping hit, the frank lyrics explore St. John’s journey from Oregon to Nashville, and the demons he may or may not have been running from.

Today, bassist and vocalist Shelby Means has released her second ever single, a soaring slow-burn bluegrass cover of Lady Gaga’s “Million Reasons.” (STREAM HERE). Means recorded her cover after years of performing the number on stage in her solo shows and with her Americana duo, Sally & George.

From her early songwriting days in a Wyoming dorm room to sharing stages with bluegrass maestras like Molly Tuttle, Shelby Means has carved out a path that blends deep-rooted influences with an adventurous artistic spirit. Now, with the release of her debut solo material, Shelby Means is embracing a musical journey uniquely her own—a journey defined by heartfelt storytelling, meaningful collaborations, and genuine authenticity.

Following the immediate success of her debut solo single, “Streets of Boulder” (Feat. Molly Tuttle, Kyle Tuttle) bluegrass bassist, singer, songwriter, and GRAMMY winner Shelby Means returns with yet another stellar track. “Million Reasons” – a bluegrass re-imagination of a Lady Gaga hit from the popstar’s country-tinged Joanne era – will be released independently on March 14, 2025.

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 Iowa-born, Nashville-based singer/songwriter Hailey Whitters released a new song “Prodigal Daughter” featuring Molly Tuttle on guitar and harmony vocals.

Today, GRAMMY and IBMA Award winning bluegrass bassist Shelby Means has released her solo debut, a traditional, burning original song, "Streets of Boulder." Previewed by The Bluegrass Situation, the track is full of heartbreak, longing, and the propulsive magnetic energy Means has become known for as an instrumentalist, songwriter, and vocalist across her lauded career in roots music.
