By Team JamBase Jul 7, 2010 • 11:38 am PDT

Speedway Meadow in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park will once again come alive with the sound of lively pickin’ and sweet harmonies from October 1-3, 2010, when the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival returns.
While the official lineup announcement hasn’t been made, there are strong RUMORS floating around about this year’s performers. Take this with the appropriate grain of salt, but it does stir excitement to think of the following hitting the SF stage in October.
