The reason we went to Kentucky? We are witnessing the joy and the power of musicians coming together as artists, as humans, as historians, AND as international collaborators!

In today’s divided world ridden with conflict and intolerance - music has a power to bring people together and remind us that at the core we still find commonality and share love for being together and creating beautiful future together.
