Shady Grove Bluegrass Festival

The Shady Grove Bluegrass Festival has run annually for nearly 30 years, delivering top notch entertainment, workshops and jamming. The Festival is now held in Sundre, Alberta, in the shadow of Snake Hill at the Sundre Pro Rodeo Grounds. The Festival is run by a committed group of volunteers and is a not for profit event.

Shady Grove is a showcase for Canadian talent such as: The Lonesome Ace Stringband, The Slocan Ramblers and Jake Vaadeland and the Sturgeon River Boys. High profile groups from further afield have included: The Po’ Ramblin’ Boys, Special Consensus, Dry Branch Fire Squad, Chris and Sally Jones and Jeff Scroggins and Colorado. The Foothills Bluegrass Music Society works hard all year to round up top notch talent for the Festival.

Alberta spans five treaty territories and eight Métis settlements. Like their ancestors, many Indigenous individuals and families make their homes across the prairies, including the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika – the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuu T’ina Nation. The Métis People of Alberta include the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta. Many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit, both from here and as visitors from elsewhere, have helped care for these lands for generations. We recognize they have traditions and relationships to the land far outstretching the arrival of settlers.

We are extremely grateful for these lands on which we reside, work, and play. We make this acknowledgement as an act of gratitude and reconciliation. While championing the arts in Calgary and across Alberta, we intend for our work to contribute to the valuing of traditional art forms and result in greater opportunity for the creative Indigenous talent who walk these lands today.
