During Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe -- our last Sunday together in the month of February -- we celebrated the birthdays of two members of the Country Music Hall of Fame and shared a couple of brand new songs, too.
The Country Hall of Famers were born one day and about 150 miles apart, but both are now enshrined for eternity in the Hall of Fame: Faron Young (February 25, 1932 - December 10, 1996) and Johnny Cash (February 26, 1932 - September 12, 2003). Like many country stars, many of the songs in the respective catalogs of these two singers have been recorded in a Bluegrass style. As we often do, we decided to spotlight some of these Bluegrass covers to honor the singers.
There was also a little bit of new music to share from Danny Paisley (with Sage Palser) and Rick Faris. We also included newer music from Jason Carter, Billy Strings, Michael Cleveland, and Jason Barie.
Thanks for listening to the show! As I write this, there's a possibility that this coming Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe will be an "encore" one, but we'll see how it goes. We'll certainly let you know via our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/WHUS.BluegrassCafe).
Enjoy the week!
