Many of the roots of Bluegrass music go back to European and Celtic origins. Today European musicians are incorporating their own musical heritage and traditions into their interpretation of Bluegrass music. This creates a rich and beautiful diversity of bands showcased every year at Bluegrass in La Roche with delicious flavours of Irish, Russian, Slav, French, Italian and, of course, American music in the Bluegrass on display.
