The ever-eclectic Fil Pate hosts the best weekly bluegrass jams in the Bay area at both Cage Brewing and the criminally-underrated St. Petersburg hangout Ale and the Witch, so it’s no shock that he’s playing three different sets at this weekend-long hootenanny.

Joining him onstage will be his ever-powerful trio and for a special Sunday appearance, local Americana trio Vision Crystal.

Also on the bill is Best of the Bay-winning folk group The Wandering Hours (which just celebrated the release of its new singles), a long-awaited Ramblegrass reunion, and in true WitchGrass Wednesdays fashion, a free-for-all bluegrass jam to kick things off.
