This is a little tag I use a lot which is a play off of some Tony Rice ideas. At full speed and then slow for anyone wanting to use it. Enjoy!

I recently stumbled upon Hills of Mexico. While a phenomenal a song, it has a whole verse from Diamond Joe. Why do both of these songs share a whole verse together? The lyrics work great for both, but it’s interesting to hear it in 2 songs

For those of us who sorely miss the Molly Tuttle and Golden Highway era, I think Bronwyn and her band are bringing that same energy back! I always loved her vibe on stage with Molly but now she’s shining brighter than ever with her own band. I just got to see her set for the first time at Hangtime Festival last weekend and they were on fire!

They played mostly songs from her new album and it was amazing, her fiddling is always great but I have new appreciation for her vocal talents and her band can JAM!!! Her new band members are all incredible in their own right, Grant Dresnok on guitar, Frank Evans on banjo, Tristan Scroggins on mandolin and I didn’t catch the bass player’s name, but all stellar performers.

Highly recommend catching her show when you can, I think she's going to be the next big thing!

I am thoroughly convinced that anyone who doesn’t like Angeline the Baker just hasn’t figured out that it can be whatever you want it to be. That said, here’s my arrangement of it.

Head on over to volume.com to catch the show.

Great album.

Wanted to share some of my favorite Bluegrass artists, who also happen to be from Michigan! Love everything Billy has done for not only the Bluegrass community, but also for some killer artists close to his hometown, especially after his festival in Ionia, MI… You can also make the argument that Greensky put Billy on the map by having Billy open for them back in the day, but you get the picture!!!

Billy > Greensky > Holly Bowling > Full Cord

The song for which my username was derived, since I am no Tony Rice.
