BRISTOL, Tenn./Va. -- The Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion concluded its three-day run in downtown Bristol on Sunday, Sept. 16, 2012.
The event celebrated Bristol’s heritage as “The Birthplace of Country Music.”
Entertainment was scheduled for Friday, Sept. 14, through Sunday, Sept. 16, along State Street.
Bristol Rhythm 2012 will firmly plant "Robert Earl Keen, Sam Bush Band, and Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, The SteelDrivers and Steep Canyon Rangers among the kudzu-like outgrowth of modern roots artists City and Colour, Dr. Dog and Delta Spirit,” said a news release from event organizers.
Americana chanteuses Tift Merritt and Carrie Rodriguez complemented the venerable talents of Nashville country star Pam Tillis.
Meanwhile, acts like The Apache Relay, Dex Romweber Duo, Zach Deputy, Rev. Peyton’s Big Damn Band, and The Black Lillies “juxtaposed some of the best and brightest in bluegrass with their rock appeal.”
