About the Artists:

Hailing from Chesterton, IN, the Watershed Ramblers are a bluegrass quartet drawn from a diverse group of influences. From bluegrass to rock to funk/RnB, the Ramblers are an acoustic outfit that will take you on a ride from traditional to contemporary using their songwriting and wide range of genre-bending pickin! Known for fast paced tempos and train-like grooves, the Ramblers bring the energy with their own style of the music that everyone knows and loves.

Formed in the fall of 2022, as friends gathered in the basement of a Northwest Indiana home to explore the world of bluegrass. Over the past few years, the Ramblers have honed their craft through countless performances at local venues, music festivals as well as hosting their own events in and out of Northern Indiana. Whether it's a foot-stomping hoedown or a soulful ballad, the Rambler's performances are a journey through the heart and soul of American roots music.

Always continuing to evolve and explore new musical territories, the Ramblers remain true to their roots, drawing inspiration from the rich heritage that has shaped American music for generations. With a passion for storytelling and commitment to preserving traditions of the past, the Ramblers are a musical force to be reckoned with, promising a journey through the heartland with every note they play.
