We led the show with a 1967 live recording from The Charles River Valley Boys -- fitting because the CRVB had just received the Heritage Award at the Joe Val festival, and Joe Val himself was the mandolin picker and lead/tenor singer in the group at the time. A couple more tracks from that performance made their way into the playlist throughout the show.
A good number of the artists represented on this show had made appearances at the Joe Val festival, including James King, Grammy award winning Steep Canyon Rangers, Audie Blaylock and Redline, Dale Ann Bradley, the Seldom Scene, and Danny Paisley & The Southern Grass who had played two blistering sets on Saturday.
Other newer music included songs from Lonesome River Band, The Spinney Brothers, Ray Edwards, Grasstowne, Cumberland Gap Connection, Nightflyer, Clay Hess, Missy Werner, and Rhonda Vincent.
Amy will be back next Sunday making the banjos and fiddles ring. Be sure to tune in.
