"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 10/11/2015

Sunday afternoon was a picture-perfect October day in Storrs, Connecticut.  What better way to spend it than with a bunch of fine Bluegrass music on the radio, right?  
Traver Hollow's 1986 LP, "Another Sleepless Night."  


As usual, the show featured a good bit of "local" Bluegrass music, but remember, "local" to us is any band or performer living in southern New England or nearby New York State.  To that end, we included music from the Feinberg Brothers (NY), Laura Orshaw (MA), the Seth Sawyer Band (VT), White Mountain Bluegrass (NH), Traver Hollow (CT), and Bear Minimum (CT & NH).  

Happy Birthday, Leigh Gibson!
We celebrated the birthday of a few performers born on October 11th:  Blaine Sprouse (10/11/1956), Josh Crowe (10/11/1957), and Leigh Gibson (10/11/1971).  In addition to birthdays, we also remembered the legendary Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs, who were inducted as members of the Country Music Hall of Fame on October 14, 1985.

Hope you had an opportunity to join us for at least part of your Sunday.  Please make plans to join Jim next Sunday for another edition of our Bluegrass Cafe.  

Enjoy your week!
