Just as we honored Hank Williams on what would have been his 100th birthday on September 17th, on this past Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe, we remembered the King of Country Music, Roy Acuff (September 15, 1903 - November 23, 1992). Mr. Acuff was definitely not a Bluegrass performer, but, like the music of Hank Williams, a whole lot of Roy Acuff's songs have been covered by Bluegrass performers over the years. We shared a dozen songs written, performed, or made famous by Roy Acuff over the course of our three hour program. Hope you enjoyed them.
New music is part of our programming most weeks, and during Sunday's show we shared some new music from the Henhouse Prowlers, as well as Nothin' Fancy and Liam Purcell & Cane Mill Road. We also shared recent music from the Kody Norris Show, the Tim Raybon Band, East Nash Grass, Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway, Jason Barie, and High Fidelity.
Hope you enjoyed the show. Please consider joining me once again this Sunday for another visit in our Bluegrass Cafe, won't you?
Enjoy the week!
