Speaker: Ben Wright, Music Educator for Bluegrass Ambassadors, Founder and Banjo Player for Henhouse Prowlers, and Education Chair for International Bluegrass Music Association

Join Ben Wright on a journey that not only traces the early influences on bluegrass from places like Africa and Europe but also zeroes in on North Carolina as one of the most important sources of inspiration for this ever-evolving music.
