Local Artists celebrate 'father of bluegrass' Saturday

·

Jim Richter wants to bring support back to bluegrass music in Bloomington. Richter is organizing a workshop and concert in honor of former Bloomington-area patron Bill Monroe, widely known as "the father of bluegrass." Monroe is revered for having the biggest influence in the creation and popularization of bluegrass. Monroe's popularization of bluegrass began in 1939 with the first edition of the "Blue Grass Boys." The band coined the term "bluegrass," which was a reference to Kentucky where Monroe was born.
