I guess I’ll throw in for Fruition. They don’t have anything booked during Telluride.

STEEP CANYON RANGERS!! even though someone else has this I put in a second vote :medal :medal :medal :medal :medal

I like Fruition . Kinda of Bluegrassy , Bluessy . Good vocals . YEAH !! SIGN ME UP!!

You have Sarah in the tipping!

Done

This will be my first trip to Telluride! My guess for one of the final names. A total wild card, but not Australian… Laura Marling. :slight_smile:

Their mandolin player, Mimi, is incredible. I’d love to see them there!

Since we are getting a second chance I’m going to go with another Australian artist, Alison Brown.
As long as someone brings a didgeridoo I’ll be happy. I love that sound.
:thumbsup

Well if we’re going the Barry Gibb route, we might as well go all out and have him share the stage with Air Supply…

Going out on a limb here. Alan Jackson for three reasons:

  1. His new CD is called “The Bluegrass Album”.

  2. Only June date filled so far is the 20th

  3. The word “country” is still on top of the TBF stage.

My vote is:
Steve Earle with Gregg Allman

ZAPPA PLAYS ZAPPA!! :thumbsup

I will go the completejohn route-
Country/Australian-Keth Urban

That’s what I’m talkin bout R man!!! :clap :clap :clap I really do get hives when I look at this thread! I’m excited already! :lol
I want a redo ! :lol just kidding.

Keith Urban is playing just down the road in Grand Junction the same weekend so I doubt he would be double billed.
Country Jam 2015

I am usually very passive when comes to posting on social media. I scan this forum several times a day for clues on potential artists. I absolutely love the diversity of this guessing game. Bluegrass being the catalyst of this festival, it is still sooo difficult to predict the final artist announcement. Ferg has not yet rejected Keller Williams yet! Saw him do a grateful grass set at yarmony last summer. Fan-friggin-tastic. I would also settle for Keller and the Keels. Or any Keller for that matter! Love that adorable teddy bear!

Btw. Hobbs, my best friend, is my dogs name. My name is Curtis.
