Just moments before the start of Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe, parts of eastern Connecticut experienced a very big rainstorm. In honor of the unstable weather, we started the show with five songs featuring rain. Hopefully, the weather will be less wet this coming Sunday, but you just never know with the New England summer weather...
so we remembered all of them during our program: Bluegrass Hall of Famer Everett Lilly, Country Music Hall of Famer Keith Whitley, and longtime Lost & Found mandolinist, Dempsey Young. We also included a number from the late banjo picker (and Bluegrass Hall of Famer), Allen Shelton. And we couldn't forget two important historical events which took place during the first days of July: the disappearance of Amelia Earhart's airplane in 1937 and the pivotal Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War (July 1-3, 1863).
Can't forget to mention the new music we shared, as well, with a couple of selections from Tony Trischka's recently released "Earl Jam" recording, and songs from the Edgar Loudermilk Band, Blue Diggity, and Red Camel Collective.
Hope you enjoyed the program, and best wishes for a safe and happy 4th of July! We'll be looking for you once again this coming Sunday during our Bluegrass Cafe.
