We can't help but be excited about the mainstage acts we've got scheduled for this summer! First up is Dale and Darcy, who've developed a cohesive and lively band that plays all over Vermont and beyond. The band includes Dale Cahill on guitar and vocals, Darcy Cahill on fiddle and penny whistle, Neil Rossi on fiddle, banjo and mandolin and Ed Sutton on bass. All three of their CDs have been picked up by streaming services, one of them being composed entirely of waltzes. They look forward to playing some of their favorite waltzes for you at Podunk on Saturday morning.

🚨Announcement:
New for campers Wednesday night of the festival is our dance set! Please join us in welcoming back Cole Quest and the City Pickers!
Led by dobro player, songwriter, and vocalist Cole Quest—grandson of folk icon Woody Guthrie —the band has carved out a singular place in today’s roots music landscape. Over the years, they’ve won the Podunk Bluegrass Festival band competition, toured Germany multiple times, and shared stages with artists like Billy Strings, Sierra Hull, and Tony Trischka. Their music bridges the solidarity of a Guthrie family sing-along with the high-lonesome sound of bluegrass made for a new century.
Bring your dancing shoes and we will see you there! @citypickers
