Every headliner and almost every supporting artist at this year’s Palisade Bluegrass and Roots Festival has some tie to Colorado.

You’re going there to see: Whitewater Ramble, The Infamous Stringdusters, The Wood Brothers.
You’re going to come home talking about: Chatham County Line, Packway Handle Band, The Railsplitters.
