Happy Fall! It's the last Sunday of September -- hope you enjoyed it!
As this is the time of year when the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) holds their big World Of Bluegrass events in Raleigh, North Carolina, we geared the first hour of our program toward some IBMA things: music from some of the nominees in two categories, and a look back at some of the "Song of the Year" award winners since the awards began in 1990. This year's conference and various awards programs and musical presentations have all moved online in this COVID-19 year of 2020, so if you've always thought you might like to check out IBMA, but could not get to the conference, this year is your chance. For more information, visit this link to World of Bluegrass. Do it soon, though, as the IBMA festivities begin September 28th and run through October 3rd! [The photos included here were taken during WoB events in 2019 in Raleigh].
Our second hour included a whole lot of Bluegrass classics, as well as a few newer selections from several bands, including the Edgar Loudermilk Band, Phil Leadbetter & the All-Stars of Bluegrass, Alan Bibey & Grasstowne, Merle Monroe, and the Grascals. Other 2020 releases from which we heard included songs from Balsam Range, Laurie Lewis, Special Consensus, Becky Buller, Stephen Mougin, RockHearts, J.B. & Jamie Dailey, High Fidelity, Junior Sisk, and the Feinberg Brothers.
As you know, these shows are now pre-recorded, and sometimes, things get overlooked. To that end, we will definitely be hearing the Podunk Bluegrass Festival Songwriter winners very soon, as early possibly as next week. Stay tuned...
Thanks so much for listening, and we'll look forward to visiting with you once again next Sunday afternoon, 4-7PM.
Have a great week ~ stay healthy!
