McCoury Visits Cumberland with DelFest Approaching

March 3rd, 2016 by WCBC Radio

In 2008, bluegrass legend Del McCoury started DelFest, an annual bluegrass festival at the Allegany County Fairgrounds and the event has grown in popularity each year since. Last month, DelFest revealed this year's lineup with Tedeschi Trucks Band, Greensky Bluegrass and Railroad Earth topping the bill along with hosts The Del McCoury Band and The Travelin’ McCourys. Rob McCoury, name banjo player of the year, along with his wife Lisa spent some time in Cumberland this week including a visit with WCBC’s Paul Mullan hosting the “Dave Norman Show” this week. Robbie says one way of measuring just how successful the annual festival has become is by looking at re-peat business.
