The father of Utah bluegrass music has sat through more music festivals than he can count. Which makes sense. They don’t call you the father of Utah bluegrass music for nothing.
But Ted Shupe, 82, can’t remember ever looking forward to a festival any more than the one coming up the weekend of July 9-11 at the Erickson Ranch in Wallsburg, Wasatch County.
Nearly two dozen bands and individual artists will participate in the sixth annual Wasatch Mountain Music Festival (Wasatchmountainmusic.com.) They will perform on two stages Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day, playing a variety of genres.

MeadowGrass is all about great music, including local, regional and national acts, and this year will be no different. Utah five-piece Ryan Shupe & The RubberBand, with their blend of bluegrass, Americana, country and rock, will play Friday night.
Saturday afternoon into evening will be handled by Austin, Texasâ Ley Line, infusing the sounds of Brazil, Latin America and West Africa; followed by California folk/blues trio Rainbow Girls, whose 2018 video for their cover of âDown Home Girlâ garnered 7.6 million views; then California-based American roots band Dustbowl Revival (above), who make music âfrom the place where folk music, funk and soul meet.â
