A few thoughts on this year’s Big Ears string slingers.

Nice summation
Thanks!
Due to work, I can’t go this year, but I highly encourage your readers to make the trip. First of all, it’s beautiful in downtown Knoxville, and the venues are fantastic. You owe it to yourself to see a concert in the Tennessee Theater. Shara Nova described it as playing inside a Faberge egg.
