Perhaps it is so familiar that the high caliber of musicianship found among the region's bluegrass musicians is sometimes taken for granted. Some of the most acclaimed players on the national scene are natives. In the more rural counties of Yadkin, Surry, Stokes, Davie, and Davidson, life is steeped in the genre. Helping create a lively bluegrass scene in the region are bluegrass festivals and conventions, as well as bluegrass jams and dances in barns, restaurants, community centers, and music stores.
