BABA Home Page
The Bay Area Bluegrass Association known as BABA, was organized in early 1986 and incorporated in 1987 under the Texas Non-Profit Corporation Act. The primary purpose of BABA is to preserve, encourage, and promote Bluegrass and Bluegrass Gospel music as an American art form. BABA promotes Bluegrass through being active in community events, fund raisers, festivals, and monthly shows.
We are proud to have supported our community in a variety of functions, fund raisers, festivals and shows. A few of these events have included: support to KPFT (listener-sponsored radio); The Seabrook Rotary; Crime Stoppers fund raiser; Armand Bayou Nature Center's Fall Festival; the Annual Fire On The Strings Bluegrass Festival; Bluegrass In The Park at League Park; Dickinson Parks Dept. concert series; and providing entertainment for area nursing homes, churches, and service organizations.

BABA Receives Recognition From League City
League City Mayor Jerry Shult's proclaimed October 10, 2006 to be Bay Area Bluegrass Association Day at the city council meeting this week. The award is in recognition of their excellence, dedication and hard work to promote not only Bluegrass music and musicians in League City, but also in the surrounding communities as well. They have been an active contributor for the past ten years, participating in events that include Clear Lakes Epicurean Evening, the fundraising fireworks on July 4th, and the Ballunar Festival. They have supported Clear Lake Crime Stoppers, Armand Bayou Nature Center Fall Festival, as well as area nursing homes and churches.
Topping off this year, BABA was selected to host the Texas State Mandolin Championship in August at the Johnny Arolfo Civic Center in League City. Their free Bluegrass music jam and stage show on the third Saturday of the month includes a special, innovative prize raffle. The drawing is made from receipts from purchases made at League City businesses the day of the show.
