During our 50th (!) "homemade" edition of our Bluegrass Cafe, we shared a whole bunch of brand-new music for 2021, as well as a few classic favorites, and a dozen-song tribute to the "Poet of the Common Man" - Merle Haggard (April 6, 1937 - April 6, 2016). Hope you were able to join us!
It seems that many Bluegrass performers have been recording while they haven't been able to play to live audiences, so that means we have a whole lot of new music to enjoy. To that end, we shared selections from the brand new "Industrial Strength Bluegrass" collection from Smithsonian Folkways, as well as songs from forthcoming or recently-released recordings by the Po' Ramblin' Boys, Darin & Brooke Aldridge, Marty Raybon, Audie Blaylock & Redline, the Kody Norris Show, Merle Monroe, Lou Reid, Bobby Osborne, Rick Faris, Barry Abernathy, Carolyn Eyerly, and the Grascals. Phew!
Hope you have wonderful week, and do consider joining me once again next Sunday afternoon, 4-7PM.
Take good care -
Amy O.
