This year the “Banjo Rascals” will perform.
See their website HERE! 
‘About Us’ information, from their website:
   “Since 1968, the Banjo Rascals have been delighting audiences of all ages with a variety of distinctive toe-tapping music. Our music ranges from 1890s Ragtime to 1950s, 60’s and 70s rock- n- roll. … 
We encourage sing-a-longs … 
The Banjo Rascals then heat things up with Hot Dixieland standards …
   The diversity of the musicians in the Banjo Rascals does not stop with songs of the Roaring 20s! Arrangements of 20’s – 30’s swing songs and Big Band Era hits … are all within the repertoire of the Banjo Rascals.
    Add a hot lead guitar and songs of Hank Williams Sr., Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and June Carter, Emmy Lou Harris and many others will make you feel like you’re in the heart of Nashville. The Banjo Rascals transform into the Country Rascals before your eyes playing mandolin, guitar, banjo, and string bass and of course wearing 10-gallon hats……”
