HONESDALE, PA — The Cooperage Project will hold an acoustic bluegrass jam on Wednesday, August 20 at The Cooperage, 1030 Main St., from 7 to 10 p.m. This jam will be led by Campfire Jones and Buckshot Jenkins.

It’s an evening for both bluegrass musicians and bluegrass listeners alike. Bluegrass is a form of American roots music within the country music genre. Its roots are actually found in Irish, Scottish, Welsh and English folk music with later influence coming from the music of African Americans through the incorporation of jazz. All instruments will be welcome, but leave your amps at home this will be entirely acoustic.

This is a donation-based event and contributions are appreciated. BYOB. For more information visit www.thecooperageproject.org or call 570/253-2020.
