"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 12/26/2021

For our last Bluegrass Cafe of 2021, we shared songs of the season, as well as a few Bluegrass favorites of the year, and a few songs in honor of some late December birthday celebrants.  Hope you had a great Christmas.

Our program for this week was recorded at home on December 21st, several days before we learned of the Christmas Eve passing of the legendary banjo player and band leader, J.D. Crowe.  Our program for the first Sunday of 2022 will include a tribute to this Bluegrass Hall of Famer, as well as a remembrance of several of the other Bluegrass performers and legends that were lost during 2021.  At this point, we are unsure if that show will be a home-made one or a live edition, but either way, sure hope you will consider joining us.

Enjoy your week, and we'll see you next Sunday for the beginning of a new year of our Bluegrass Cafe!

Happy New Year!

Amy O.
