Scottish Highland Games and Bluegrass Festival Share Heritage
Aiken hosts a Scottish Highland Games at Sporting Days Farm on Hwy 78 East with bagpipes drums and Scottish ballads while downtown features a Bluegrass Festival highlighting banjo mandolin bass and fiddle. The piece traces Bluegrass roots to Scots Irish and Welsh migration to America and credits Bill Monroe with shaping the bluegrass sound blending Scottish heritage with other traditions.
