LouGrass is Louisville’s take on Kentucky’s beloved bluegrass music—born in the hills of Appalachia and raised on acoustic instruments and rich traditions. It’s a celebration of Kentucky roots music that blends bluegrass with Americana, blues, jazz, and more.

Here you can find all the performances throughout the year, including free and ticketed events.

From April through November, we present a special series: the LouGrass Sessions, where you can hear the sounds of LouGrass throughout the city, with free live performances at unique local venues every weekend.

Louisville has long been part of bluegrass history, from hosting major festivals to serving as home to legendary musicians. Today, LouGrass carries that legacy forward with a new generation of artists keeping the tradition alive. Catch a show, tap your toes, and enjoy a little Bourbon while you’re at it.
