Bring your acoustic instrument and join in for a bluegrass jam. All skill levels are welcome. Come out and pick or just listen in this historic venue on “International Play Music on the Porch Day”.
“What if for one day everything stopped… And we all just listened to the music?”
Even though this seems like a simple idea, if it worked, it could produce profound results.
So in 2014 WSU Bluegrass Pickers decided to share this idea with the world and to their surprise, the idea spread even faster than they could have ever imagined. Fast forward to 2018, thousands of musicians from at least 70 countries and thousands of cities participated and the movement continues to grow every day. Musicians from across the globe, regardless of their differences, are finding common ground through music.
Play Music On The Porch Day knows that music is powerful and universal. It doesn’t matter if you play an Oud, a Guitarrón, a Nyckelharpa, or a Guitar. When you pick up your instrument and start to play the world disappears and you get lost in the sounds. Music goes beyond words. It can transcend the most difficult barriers. It ties us together like a thread through our hearts. Our skin is many colors but music is in our blood, our bones and our soul.
The day at the historic Sam Davis Home and Museum on August 26, 2023 as WSU Bluegrass Pickers share their talents, passions, and music.
