Since 1944, the Rosine Barn has functioned as a general store, post office, blacksmith shop, Louisville Slugger workshop, and bus depot among other things. Local musicians moved their weekly Friday night jam session to the Barn in 1992. Admission is free, musicians aren't paid and bags of popcorn cost $1. Bill Monroe (1911-1996) the legendary father of bluegrass music was born in Rosine and is buried at the Rosine Cemetery around the corner from the barn. He played his last show at the Barn and his spirit lives on there every Friday night. If you'd like to play at the jam, please call 270-363-3052 to book your slot.
