GRAMMY-nominated bluegrass powerhouse Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen return with their new single, “Wuddle I Do,” on Turnberry Records. Following the success of their debut single with the label, “Looking Past You,” the band delivers another standout recording that combines exceptional musicianship, irresistible melodies, and the heartfelt storytelling that has become a hallmark of their music. “Wuddle I Do” is available to radio now via Get It Played.
Written by Frank Solivan, “Wuddle I Do” is a spirited, traditional bluegrass number born from a deeply personal experience. While its lively tempo, infectious melody, and driving instrumentation make it an instant toe-tapper, the lyrics tell a very different story—one of heartache, longing, and the hope of rekindling a love that may be slipping away.
The song captures one of bluegrass music’s most enduring qualities: its ability to turn heartbreak into something that makes listeners smile, tap their feet, and sing along. With the playful phrasing of its title and an unforgettable chorus, “Wuddle I Do” balances lonesome lyrics with the energy and musical precision that have earned Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen a place among bluegrass music’s most celebrated bands.
“‘Wuddle I Do’ was inspired by a tough season in my life,” shares Solivan. “I wanted to convey the weight of that moment in time and make a sad and painful moment feel hopeful the way that only bluegrass can. You know, put a smile on it and let the lonesome lyrics live underneath the happy sounds of a bluegrass quartet. ‘Wuddle I Do’ is my second single with Turnberry. It's an honest-to-goodness bluegrass rendering that is super catchy and really fun to play. You can hear that in this recording. I think we really captured something special in the studio.”
“Wuddle I Do” further showcases Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen’s distinctive combination of traditional bluegrass roots and progressive musical creativity. Solivan's commanding lead vocals and mandolin work are complemented by the exceptional talents of Mike Munford on banjo, Jack Dunlap on guitar and low harmony vocals, and Cody Brown on bass and high harmony vocals. Together, they deliver the tight arrangements, powerful rhythms, and seamless harmonies that have become synonymous with the Dirty Kitchen sound.
“Wuddle I Do” also serves as the title track of the band's forthcoming album, scheduled for release in 2027. The single will be available on all digital music platforms on November 20, 2026.
