Grand Ole Opry, headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, and established in 1925, is a music venue that offers weekly country music stage concerts.

The Bluegrass Situation (BGS) is the world’s largest community for American roots music, culture, and lifestyle. Co-founded by lifelong banjo player Ed Helms (The Office; The Hangover) and executive director Amy Reitnouer Jacobs in 2012, what began as a blog for Angeleno bluegrass fans has become the hub for every branch of the roots music family tree, encompassing an online magazine, podcast network, exclusive video content, live shows, and curated events at major festivals: from Bonnaroo to Newport Folk to Cayamo. In 2024, BGS expanded with their new sister site, Good Country. BGS proudly represents a unique gathering place: supporting and uplifting the rich, diverse, and varied history of these musics - and the artists and fans who keep them alive - while looking ahead with a vision to transform these traditions into a 21st century lifestyle open to all. It’s really quite simple: we are Roots Culture Redefined.
