Lorraine Jordan & Carolina Road have announced the cancellation of the Carolina Road Homecoming Bluegrass Festival, which was held annually in November at the Ramada Inn in Burlington, North Carolina. The band has hosted and promoted this festival at the Ramada Inn for the past four years. Due to low ticket sales, Ms. Jordan says, “we have made the decision to cancel the festival.”
Carolina Road was approached last December with the opportunity to take over the Christmas in the Smokies Bluegrass Festival, which has 
been hosted by The Larkin Family for the past two decadesat the Ramada Inn and Smoky Convention Center in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
The 2012 Christmas in the Smokies Festival will be held on Wednesday, December 12 through Saturday, December 15 at the beautiful Ramada Inn and Smoky Mountain Convention Center.
The band lineup includes your host, Carolina Road, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, Marty Raybon, Goldwing Express, Ralph Stanley II, Bobby Osborne & The Rocky Top X-Press, Gary Waldrep Band, Jerry Butler & The Blu-Js, Remington Ryde, Mike Conner & The Travelers, The Larkins, Reno Tradition, Mountain Faith, and the Hart Brothers.
