"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 5/26/2019

Sunday's show got a delayed start as the UConn Baseball team was losing their tournament game, so the show went on the air sometime around 22 minutes past the hour.  No big deal, though, as we still tried to squeeze in a whole lot of fine music...and I think we succeeded!

It's Memorial Day weekend, and that means that we spent a good half-hour sharing songs of soldiers who gave their lives in the service of this country.  

We also enjoyed a little bit of newer music, which was released within the last year or so.  Among these selections was music from Carolina Blue, the Feinberg Brothers, Danny Paisley & the Southern Grass, High Fidelity, Connecticut's own Grass Routes, Joe Mullins & the Radio Ramblers, and Balsam Range.  In addition, there was brand-new music from projects by the Lonesome River Band, Tom Mindte, Mason Via, & Ben Somerville, the Edgar Loudermilk Band featuring Jeff Autry, the All Stars Of Bluegrass, and a gospel project from Alan Bibey & Grasstowne.  


Even though we didn't get to celebrate the 83rd birthday of Country & Bluegrass Music Hall of Famer Tom T. Hall (born May 25, 1936) quite as thoroughly as we had intended, we still shared a few numbers written and/or performed by the Storyteller.  Perhaps the Tom T. celebration will continue next Sunday...

And don't forget our upcoming Jenny Brook Giveaway drawing:  we will be drawing one winner for a 6-day pass to next month's Jenny Brook Bluegrass Festival (Tunbridge, VT -- June 25-30, 2019) during the show next Sunday, June 2nd.  To enter the contest, just send us an email:  bgcafe@gmail.com OR comment on the Jenny Brook post on our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/WHUS.BluegrassCafe).  Pretty easy, huh?  Don't delay -- enter today!

Enjoy the week!
