HogMaw’s live performances can vary from the traditional Bluegrass set to their blend of rowdy and rompin’ Thundergrass. While their music is rooted in bluegrass tradition, they push boundaries with edgy melodic riffs and catchy choruses. HogMaw returns to the Bucks County Music Festival for the third Year in a row. The hardest working NewGrass band in southeast Pennsylvania is not to be missed.
