"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 8/6/2023

I'm just back from the 2023 edition of the fabulous Podunk Bluegrass Festival in Goshen, CT, and realized that I never posted a playlist from LAST week's Bluegrass Cafe!  Sheesh.  

Without a lot of fanfare, the list follows.  Highlights included new music from the Lonesome River Band and Darren Beachley & Caleb Bailey (among others), a lot of songs from Podunk performers, and birthday tributes to Country Music Hall of Famers, Webb Pierce and Mel Tillis, as well as to the King of Bluegrass, Jimmy Martin.

Please be sure to join us on the radio TODAY (Sunday, 8/13) for three big hours of Bluegrass music starting off at 4PM!

See you soon!
