Local folk and bluegrass artists, Shelby Bottom String Band, will be our entertainment at the 40th Anniversary Closing Celebration. Jon Weisberger of Nashville Scene said of the band, "near to East Nashville's Shelby Bottoms is a dense intersection called Five Points. Metaphorically, the Shelby Bottom String Band stands at its own Five Points, where humor and history, generosity of spirit, musical skill and inimitable groove all meet- and that's a mighty good place to be."
