playing on the main stage, the young woman on right was one of 3 finalists in the #RockyGrass #Banjo Contest (young woman accompanying on left is her sister and a Guitar Contest finalist) ~ 15 and 18 years old respectively...
most incredibly the 15-year-old WON the contest ~ afterwards staff were researching if she may be the youngest winner in history of this prestigious contest ~ many winners of RockyGrass band/instrument contests go on to be huge in #bluegrass ~ she is gonna be a star 🪕⭐️

When the last rose of summer pricks my finger
And the hot sun chills me to the bone
When I can't hear the song for the singer
And I can't tell my pillow from a stone

@Neddyo she is great - her collaborations with the Punch Brothers has shined not only on her excellent guitar and mandolin playing but also an amazing voice. Her singing with PB at #RockyGrass this year was a stunning highlight
