The Podunk Bluegrass Music Festival will celebrate its 13th year with one of its most outstanding line-ups to date. The festival will run from Thursday, July 31st through Sunday, August 3rd at Martin Park in East Hartford, Connecticut. People always ask, "How nice can this festival be if it's in a city". But once you arrive at Martin Park you will find all the city sounds melt away and the mature park keeps the city sounds out and the bluegrass in.
