Bridget K. fan from waaaay back here.    Joy Kills Sorrow days. Word travels pretty fast in bluegrass and oldtyme music circles, so it didn't take long for her to really make an entrance. And the ones of us that play upright bass knew immediately... she's a monster. Absolutely, go see Lake Street Dive... more of the sane, just better.

My wife commented... I would love to shake her hand, I bet they are strong.

Bridget truly has command of her bass.

Alison Krauss, guests with Phil & Friends on "Morning Dew" last week in MO.



Totally shoulda' laid a fiddle solo on 'em... just my two cents of course.

Wonderful!  She should do a whole show with them.  And yes, she should have brought her fiddle.

Chaka Khan with The Metropole Orchestra.  I could eat this with a spoon . . . . . 'Ain't Nobody' and 'Whatcha Gonna Do for Me?' just slay me.  What pipes with great accompaniment.  She was in good voice for this.

Yep, the Metropole Orkest will do just about anything.

I really enjoy Wes Stephenson's bass playing... man, he's tough to beat! I don't care for the jangly tone he tends to lean towards, but he sure makes it work. What a monster pocket bassist though.

Yes, and in these videos it looks like he's enjoying the music they are making.

I hear these guys get all their instruments road-ready at The Scroll Shop ( . . . . well, probably not the accordion . . . . . ).

What in the world is the accordion player wearing on his head?
