Live Music
We’re excited to welcome Fox Crossing Stringband to the Long Grove Craft Beer Fest! This lady-led bluegrass group from Chicago has been winning hearts with their beautiful harmonies, original songwriting, and entertaining stage presence since forming in November of 2016. They have performed at events such as IBMA award-winning Frankfort Bluegrass Festival, the John Hartford Memorial Festival, East Troy Bluegrass Festival, Ladies of Bluegrass Festival, the Illinois State Fair, Wander Down Music Fest, Merchant Street Music Festival, American Music Fest, and many more!
They have also performed on the WGN Radio and WGN TV Shows, and at notable venues in Chicago such as City Winery, The Park West, and Navy Pier. These Foxes are on the run and coming to a town near you!
