Matt Kelley of WNKU 89.7 FM (Northern Kentucky University, Highland Heights, KY) recently spoke to Gabrielle Gray, the Executive Director of the International Bluegrass Music Museum, Owensboro, KY, about the Museum’s ongoing education program for children that has led to a proliferation of budding young bluegrass pickers in the region.
The two also spoke about what else the Museum has to offer for anybody interested in the genre.
One very interesting aspect about which Ms. Gray spoke is the part that bluegrass music had to play in a twinning arrangement between Owensboro and its Japanese sister city, Nisshin (Aichi).
There is an eight minute audio recording of the interview at the station’s website.
