Kentucky Educational Television has released the schedule for the 2013 season of Jubilee, their live acoustic and bluegrass music program.
This entire season is taken from performances shot during the 2012 Fan Fest in Nashville during the IBMA World of Bluegrass, marking the first time in the show’s 15 years that it was shot outside of the Bluegrass State.
There will be 20 new episodes airing each Tuesday and Saturday, starting the week of June 4 on public television throughout Kentucky. Tuesday shows are at 8:00 p.m. (ET) on the main KET network, rebroadcasting Saturdays at 11:00 (ET) on KET2.
For folks outside of Kentucky, each new episode will be available for online viewing at ket.org within 24 hours of its initial airing.
Here’s a video preview they created for this year’s shows.
Jubilee producer Nick Helton says that he is pleased with the 2013 season.
“We were thrilled to take our Jubilee production to the IBMA Fan Fest event last fall, and it was extra special being the first time those performances were recorded for broadcast. It was two amazing days filled with great music and will make one of the best Jubilee seasons we’ve ever had.”
