Williams and Clark Look to the New Year


What To Look For In 2009 from Williams and Clark Expedition:

Williams & Clark Expedition has a lot to look forward to in 2009. The band will once again join in the fun for the Rhonda Vincent Bluegrass Cruise taking place the end of this month. The cruise will visit 5 ports of call in 8 days including Puerto Rico, Antigua, St. Thomas, Tortola and The Bahamas. Two bluegrass publications will feature the band this year. Bluegrass Music Profiles will feature a Q&A with Blake and Kimberly Williams in their March/April issue. And the Expedition interviewed with freelance writer, Nancy Cardwell for a story to run in Bluegrass Unlimited magazine later this year.


Update On Franklin, KY Music Festival:
Announcements were made at the 2008 Franklin, KY Music Festival that Williams & Clark Expedition has taken over the event as producers and are moving the festival to it's new location at the Blue Grass Music RV Park. The owners of the park are planning to build an 18,000 square foot covered pavilion to house the stage and audience for the festival. Recently the Expedition learned that the RV Park owners have purchased additional land attached to the current park to allow for more parking for drive-in traffic and expansion of the number of RV hookups. Construction should be completed in April.The 6th Annual Franklin, KY Music Festival will take place September 11th and 12th and will feature Williams & Clark Expedition, Rhonda Vincent & The Rage, Grasstowne, Connie Smith, The Dillards, Lonesome River Band, Michael Cleveland & Flamekeeper, Nothin' Fancy, Next Best Thing and The Bluegrass Brothers.
