Sisters Folk Festival headliners

The Nashville Bluegrass Band is coming to Sisters.

The Nashville Bluegrass Band -- one of the top outfits in the country -- will headline the Sisters Folk Festival September 7-9.

The band, composed of some of the finest bluegrass musicians in the business, has gained added attention over the past year, with its members performing on the wildly successful "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack.

NBB members Pat Enright, Stuart Duncan, and Mike Compton recorded as the film's legendary "Soggy Bottom Boys."

In addition to their live performances, individual members are "first call" session men in Nashville.

The Sisters Folk Festival will also include a return performance by ace Austin performer Slaid Cleaves, and numerous national and regional acts.

Tickets will go on sale in June.
