Throwback to the summit in Prague on March 6th - 8th. A ton of brilliant showcases, interesting discussions and seminars, luthiers, microphones, banjos, guitars and mandolins. And of course, endless jams in the lobbies and actually in all corners of the hotel! There’s no genre as quite as inclusive and welcoming as bluegrass! A huge thanks to the new board of EBMA, you did a fantastic job and made everyone feel so at home! 😍🙏🏻✨

Jukka is perhaps most known for his work with but when with us, I’ve never spotted an electric bass in his hands, he never fails to bring the double bass, regardless of the size of the instrument, the weather conditions or technical issues with exploding scrolls or collapsing bridges! So do come out and experince for the first time on stage, the three voice harmonies of Jukka, Minna Kare and yours truly! I got the goose bumps at rehearsal, come see if you get them too! 😅 Next Thursday on the 5th of March. Showtime 8pm! ✨ upstairs and don’t forget to bring a friend. Free entry!
