Bluegrass examines the startling possibility of faith and hope in a
world defined by the impermanent and punctuated by pain and death.
The story follows Cold Spring, a semiprofessional bluegrass band,
from their obscure origins In Pigeon Forge, Pennsylvania, to the
national stage. While the band tries for the golden ring of
stardom, their home county is suffering from the growing pains
caused by the opening of a new Interstate highway and the culture
shock caused by a huge influx of people fleeing the city. From the
moment real estate mogul Hugh McAdam's helicopter sets down in the
parking lot of Chat Dalton's Garage, a struggle for control of the
county ensues that eventually involves the Governor, scrapple, the
Drug Enforcement Agency, ice tongs, the Immigration and
Naturalization Service, cops, history books, drug dealers,
auctioneers, bluegrass seed, construction workers, bibles, and
assorted eccentric locals. Along the way, Dalton discovers that his
past, like his beliefs about the future, are not all they appear to
be. Spanning one festival season, the sights, sounds, heart and
soul of bluegrass music and the rural bluegrass community that
loves it are the backdrop for a story of lost innocence, rapacious
development, endangered love, and the daunting task the locals of
Pigeon Forge have in dealing with a paradise lost.
