The playlist for Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe was perfect for a lazy, summer Sunday. We started off by belatedly remembered some important early July historical events in song (the disappearance of Amelia Earhart's airplane on July 2, 1937, as well as three songs remembering the 160th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg).
We were delighted to give away a couple of day passes to this coming weekend's Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival in Oak Hill, New York. In anticipation, we played music from some of the Grey Fox featured performers for 2023, including the Del McCoury Band, Sam Bush, the Dan Tyminski Band, and the Dry Branch Fire Squad, to name a few. Congratulations to our winners!
There was a little bit of newer music to share, too, including a brand-new single from the trio of Greg Blake, Rebekah Speer, and Jeff Brown, and a completely new recording from the Connecticut duo of Amy Gallatin and Roger Williams. Recent music was represented, too, with songs by (Kristin Scott and Wayne) Benson, Retro 78, the Kody Norris Show, Rock Hearts, and Still Pickin'.
And we couldn't forget to remember two more Bluegrass performers who died too soon in the month of June: band leader Mark Kuykendall (October 17, 1962 - June 19, 2023) and musician and arranger John Miller (February 18, 1974 - June 22, 2023).
Hope you're having a wonderful week! We'll see you again on Sunday afternoon at 4PM for another Bluegrass Cafe!
