Rachel Baiman is already much loved by the La Roche audience after two appearances with Oh My Darling (2013) and 10 String Symphony (2017) and several collaboration projects with the likes of Molly Tuttle (La Roche Bluegrass Festival 2018).
After her highly acclaimed first solo album "Shame" (2107), she is touring her new album "Thanksgiving", a collection of bittersweet and uplifting songs about the trials of living in today's chaotic world with a strong message of hope. We are taking advantage of her UK tour to bring her to La Roche an exclusive concert on the European mainland. She will be playing with Shelby Means on bass (Sally & George, ex Della Mae) and Cy Winstonian on electric and acoustic guitar. Entrance is free and as usual we will ask for contributions on your way out to help cover the fee, the travel, the sound and the accommodation. Thank you for your help. |
Look back on 2018 As well as the great Emmanuel Marin, our official photographer, we had some excellent photographers at the festival last year, who shared their work with us, and wanted to give everyone a chance to see some of their pictures.
Take a look and go back to those hot summer days. There are pictures of the concerts, of course, but also lots of pics of the audience and the general public from all different aspects of the festival. Lots of fun. coming up in 2019We are working hard to put the line up together for 2019.
Information to European bands who want to play will be going out mid January. Meanwhile we can already confirm that Boston based Mile Twelve will headline. We have been watching their progress for a few years now and are very excited to bring to mainline Europe for the first time. We are also thrilled to bring the great country star Whitney Rose to La Roche Bluegrass Festival for our Sunday evening "close but not quite bluegrass" slot! I saw her last year and was blown away. She really is a must see.
