THE HIGH 48s
have been making music that combines the soulful sound of classic bluegrass with a modern attitude, original songs and a wide range of influences far beyond Bill Monroe, the Stanley Brothers, and Flatt and Scruggs. The High 48s are a band of songwriters who perform their own material in addition to the "festival favorites."

Since forming in 2006, The High 48s have been making music that combines the soulful sound of classic bluegrass with a modern attitude, original songs and a wide range of influences far beyond Bill Monroe, the Stanley Brothers, and Flatt and Scruggs.

The band takes their name from railroad slang for the boxcars originally used to transport troops on the front lines in WWI that could carry 40 soldiers or 8 horses, and were later used in the US on fast-moving "hot shot" freight trains by train-hoppers looking for work during the Great Depression.

NOTE: Non-credit card purchasers can make ticket reservations and purchase/pickup their will call tickets at the event by contacting Bill Loe directly, 612-270-2864.
