"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 7/11/2021 -- All Aboard for a BGC Revisit!

As you likely know, we've been pre-recording our Bluegrass Cafe programs since COVID shut down WHUS in mid-March of 2020.  With the exception of one other week since then, we've made it a goal to produce a brand-new show every week since we started recording shows for broadcast beginning April 19, 2020.  This week, the best laid plans just didn't pan out, as I could not get my recording equipment to sound the way it needed to sound.  So, we pulled out a rerun show for you to (hopefully) enjoy once more.  This show was originally broadcast on May 31, 2020.  We hope to provide a "fresh" and current broadcast next Sunday afternoon -- July 18th.  Hope you'll consider joining us from 4-7PM.

Have a good week!

Bluegrass Cafe playlist -- originally broadcast May 31, 2020


All aboard!  Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe devoted one hour plus to songs about trains -- freight trains, diesel trains, the romance of the train, black trains, midnight trains, glory bound trains -- you name it!  We could easily devote several shows to just this one topic...and may spend another hour in a future program doing just that!  



We also paid birthday tribute to the late Hazel Dickens, who was born on June 1, 1925.  The songs of this Bluegrass Hall of Famer continue to be frequently recorded, but on this day's show, Hazel was the featured performer.

There was a bit of newer music to share, too, with a brand-spanking new song from Carolina Blue, as well as new music from the likes of songwriter Eric BraceProfessor Dan Boner, the Feinberg BrothersHigh FidelityDale Ann Bradley & Tina AdairStephen MouginJ.B. & Jamie Dailey, and Junior Sisk.  

Hope you are enjoying our pre-recorded programs.  We'll continue to keep bringing them to you for as long as we can, but we sure do look forward to the day when the show can once again be broadcast live as it's happening.  In the meantime, be sure to email us at bgcafe@gmail.com and/or visit our Facebook page.

Have a great week, and, as always, stay healthy!
