The Heritage Bluegrass Festival on Saturday, June 26, 2021, echoed with “world-class bluegrass” music, in the opinion of Dr. Bradley Yaklich, Morrison, IL.
From 11:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., vocals and instrumentals filled the natural amphitheater, at Heritage Canyon, 515 N. 4th Street, in Fulton, IL.
The lineup included “No Worries,” “Fox Crossing String Band,” “Grass Attack,” and “Cristina Vane String Band.”
Proceeds will benefit the Early American Crafters, Heritage Canyon, and other local charities.
