There was some top-notch live Bluegrass to be heard in Connecticut last weekend at the Podunk Bluegrass Festival in Goshen, and we made sure to share selections from several Podunk performers during Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe. Hope you were able to get to Goshen to enjoy the 25th edition of Podunk. It was a great one! Big thank you to the Podunk organizing committee for putting together such a fabulous festival! (If you weren't able to be in Goshen, we shared music from several Podunk performers, including Seth Mulder & Midnight Run, the Kody Norris Show, Joe Mullins & the Radio Ramblers, Williamson Branch, the Alex Leach Band, and Dan Tyminski.
We had a lot of birthday celebrating to do on Sunday, as well. To that end, we shared songs in celebration of four members of the Country Music Hall of Fame (Phil Balsley of the Statler Brothers, Webb Pierce, Connie Smith, and Mel Tillis). Three of these folks had birthdays on August 8th.
Have yourself a wonderful week, and we'll see you again on Sunday afternoon at 4PM for our Bluegrass Cafe!
