Where No Bluegrass Has Gone Before

by Robert Palomo

Well, another Russia-America Bluegrass Jamboree has come and gone – the third one so far. When I suggested the crazy idea to the American Consulate General in St. Petersburg 3-1/2 years ago I never dreamed how amazingly it would pan out. The first one in 2010 kicked off with Pete “Dr. Banjo” Wernick accompanied by Joan Wernick on guitar, Justin Hoffenberg on fiddle, and yours truly on bass. Then last year we brought over Donna Ulisse and the Poor Mountain Boys (Greg Davis, banjo, Rick Stanley, guitar, Jon Martin, mandolin and Bobby King, bass). This year Bill Evans came over with an all-star cast from Nashville: Barbara Lamb, fiddle, Tim May, guitar, and Todd Phillips, on bass. What a treat to meet those folks and hear them play over here!
