Bluegrass Crosswords – Barry Poss and Sugar Hill Records

Event Details

Bluegrass Today Crosswords

I’ve been at the IBMA World of Bluegrass all this week, so I thought I’d do a puzzle about the new Hall of Fame inductee who may not be familiar to some folks, Barry Lyle Poss. Barry was an industry pioneer and founder of Sugar Hill Records, an innovative major label in the 1980s and ’90s. Sugar Hill’s reputation as a plucky independent label attracted new artists, bringing a fresh new energy to the world of bluegrass. Barry sadly left us last year, but not before making a huge mark on bluegrass music.

We’ll abbreviate Sugar Hill Records as “SH” in the longer clues.

Remember, you can use the “Assist” menu (or the light bulb icon, if you’re on a mobile device) if you need a little help.

Enjoy! And visit Bluegrass Today every Saturday morning for a brand new bluegrass puzzle.
