What?!!! The Grascals are coming to Falmouth for the Kentucky Wool Festival!! Yes, you heard that right!
And if you know Bluegrass, you know this is a BIG deal! The Grascals are a three-time Grammy-nominated Bluegrass band and two-time IBMA Entertainers of the Year - but their connection to one of country music's most beloved legends, Dolly Parton, makes their story even better.
Early in their career, The Grascals were hand-picked by Dolly Parton to tour with her, serving as both her opening act and backing band. That friendship has lasted through the years, and recently it came full circle with a very special song — “Broken Angels" which was inspired by the struggles of addiction, recovery, hope and second chances.

Written by The Grascals’ Jamie Johnson and Dolly Parton, Broken Angels was inspired by the struggles of addiction, recovery, hope and second chances. The song came from a deeply personal place for both Johnson and Parton, and their longtime friendship helped shape it into something powerful and heartfelt.
Now that song is earning national attention in the bluegrass world — and the band behind it is coming right here to Pendleton County.
So picture this: a crisp October afternoon, the hills around Falmouth showing off their fall colors, the smell of all that famous Wool Fest food in the air, and The Grascals live on stage.
I don't know about you, but that gives us all the chills!
