"Located among eucalyptus groves in Golden Gate Park's urban oasis...this was the kind of festival that thrived on a cross-pollination of ideas, favoring the purity of expression over the purity of genres as we might conceive of them." - Paul Bonanos, No Depression

As a lead up to the 25th Anniversary in 2025, the staff at HSB has been busy combing the archives to share some of the special moments from the past decades to bring you Portals to the Past. In honor of what would have been Warren Hellman's 90th birthday on July 25th, the first segment of the series, Strictly Bluegrass will be released on the HSB TV platform (bitly). Stay tuned for future episodes.
This year, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass also mourns the passing of longtime Operations Producer Greg Wynn. When Greg became the operational lead of HSB, he found a team of people who became his chosen family. "For the past two years Greg fought cancer with determination, grace, and bravery," festival officials said. "Greg also leaves behind many close friends, all of whom have been instrumental in his life; he left an indelible mark on everyone and will forever be missed."
"This year has been difficult for all of us. Our entire staff is working tirelessly to honor Greg's memory. We are proud to name our busiest intersection Wynn's Crossing. Located on JFK it will visually shuttle spectators from the Rooster Stage to the Arrow Meadow. "This was a spot where he spent a lot of time monitoring traffic flow to ensure the best possible experience for everyone, so it seems fitting" says Hardy Strictly Bluegrass Executive Producer, Sheri Sternberg.
