Master Musicians Festival brings variety of musical acts to Somerset

SOMERSET, Ky. (WTVQ) – This weekend, music lovers from across Kentucky traveled to Somerset to listen to a variety of multi-cultural, multi-generational and multi-racial music.

Every year the Master Musicians Festival brings a variety of musical acts to the stage
from blues to bluegrass to rock and roll to country and everything in between.

Mayor Alan Keck says its a record year for the festival

“I think you’re going to see us continue to grow. We’re always going to honor those that have paved a way, our hometown heroes, the best and brightest in Somerset and promote their talent. But, the headliner acts may get bigger and bigger and I think this is going to go from a regional festival to one folks know about all over America” said Keck.

The non-profit that puts on the show says it aims to bring musical excellence to rural Kentucky.
