Budos Band:

That same Budos popped up for me in the side bar last week.   They are a fun listen!

Something to watch for on the Tiny Desk series... she didn't say when it would air.

Can't wait!  But I had to laugh when the first response to her post was "Sierra is top tier level musician. I'm a progressive metal and shred guitar nut so I'm telling you that her insane abilities have reached outside the bluegrass genre and it's undeniable. She's amazing."

Anyone who thinks Vai, Satriani, Malmsteen, et al - let alone metal players - are the definition of "shred" has clearly never spent any time listening to 'grassers, or to Nashville cats.....


Peter (who didn't even mention that the bluegrass folks are doing it on acoustic instruments with what the above-mentioned would consider bass strings)

I can't remember how old Sierra was when we first met her in-person, but she came to Galax with Adam one year. I feel like it was a year or two before this, like she was probably 18 or so. You could tell she had clearly been studying him for a very long time. And that kid loved to jam 24/7. They did workshops together like this quite often. The connection you see between them... that's pretty special there.

Live set from Mikaela Davis & Southern Star:

East Nash Grass turned loose another single last night from their upcoming album, due out next month. This one's called "Lonesome Song". 



I happened to notice they are playing at Ryman Auditorium tonight. Hopefully someone will post some video. I've not seen/heard them do this one yet.

East Bay Grease is still very greasy...

Greasy in Tokyo as well....

Oh, man, yeah!  I'd glance away for a bit and when I looked back at the screen I'd be shocked to see they'd switched leads; aboslute mind-meld!

One nation under a groove.

Dr. Molly Miller, sans her customary bass, drums, and dancing (but still quite tasty):

Loved it!  A nice celebration of Detroit.  We had the original by Funkadelic when it came out in '78.

Yeah, she can play; and her arrangements are always interesting.

I was at the gig in my home city of Birmingham England on that 1978 tour.
What an experience!
